Private College Tuition Covered in Full by the Post-9/11 GI Bill®

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition benefit is enough to cover the full tuition and fees at NWOSU.

Yellow Ribbon Participation Could Not Be Determined

NWOSU is not listed as a Yellow Ribbon participant in current federal reporting. Check directly with the school, since participation can change year to year.

Per-Credit Fees and the Active-Duty Tuition Assistance Cap

Your Living Expenses Are Likely Covered

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® also covers housing through a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA). The table compares the housing benefit to estimated living expenses at NWOSU.

Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA)$1,488/mo
