Below is the gap between the Post-9/11 tuition benefit and the cost at SABER College. See the living-expense and book sections below for those benefits.

On top of tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® provides a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) for the months you are in school. Below, the academic-year housing benefit is set against the estimated living costs at SABER College.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $3,612/mo |
