by our College Data Analytics TeamWill you go to Ohio Institute of Allied Health for free thanks to the G.I. Bill®? The answer depends on the school — benefits are capped and the details vary, so it pays to do your research.
Below is the gap between the Post-9/11 tuition benefit and the cost at Ohio Institute of Allied Health. Housing and book benefits are covered separately below.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Veteran tuition & fees | $24,493 |
| Guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit | $20,235 |
| Tuition out of pocket | $4,258 |
The Post-9/11 GI Bill® limits the annual tuition benefit to roughly $20,235, so tuition beyond that is out of pocket (or covered by Yellow Ribbon) at Ohio Institute of Allied Health.
Ohio Institute of Allied Health is not listed as a Yellow Ribbon participant in current federal reporting. Contact the veteran services office to confirm whether any programs offer Yellow Ribbon matching.
Beyond tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® pays a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) while you are enrolled. The table compares the housing benefit to estimated living expenses at Ohio Institute of Allied Health.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $10,280 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $1,659/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $13,272 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $2,992 |
At this school the academic-year housing benefit exceeds typical living costs, so most full-time students come out ahead. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.
Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; Ohio Institute of Allied Health estimates these costs at about $4,906, leaving about $3,906 out of pocket.
