by our College Data Analytics TeamHow much of the cost at South Florida Bible College will the G.I. Bill® cover? Coverage is not unlimited and varies school to school, so the fine print is worth checking.
The table below compares the guaranteed Post-9/11 tuition benefit to the cost of attending South Florida Bible College. See the living-expense and book sections below for those benefits.
| Item | Amount |

Tuition and fees here fall within the annual Post-9/11 GI Bill® benefit, so eligible veterans typically owe nothing toward tuition at South Florida Bible College.
Federal data does not indicate that South Florida Bible College currently participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. If you need benefits beyond the Post-9/11 cap, ask the schools veteran services office whether any programs participate.
For active-duty students, Tuition Assistance covers up to $250 per credit hour — the indicators below show whether South Florida Bible College is below that cap.

|---|---|---|

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 South Florida Bible College.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $10,443 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $3,612/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $28,896 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $18,453 |
At this school the academic-year housing benefit exceeds typical living costs, so most full-time students come out ahead. The MHA is based on the school’s ZIP code and is paid at the full-time rate for resident students.
Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; South Florida Bible College estimates these costs at about $600, so the stipend covers them in full.
