Your Living Expenses Are Likely Covered

Beyond tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® pays a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) while you are enrolled. Here is how that benefit compares to the estimated cost of living at Salve Regina.

Item	Amount
Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year)	$13,170
Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA)	$2,913/mo
Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months)	$23,304
Estimated surplus in your pocket	$10,134

At this school the academic-year housing benefit exceeds typical living costs, so most full-time students come out ahead. MHA amounts reflect the local housing rate for the school’s area.

Your Books and Supplies Are Likely Covered

Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; Salve Regina estimates these costs at about $1,600, leaving about $600 out of pocket.
