Veterans Can Attend Southern New Hampshire University With Tuition Fully Covered

Below is the gap between the Post-9/11 tuition benefit and the cost at SNHU. Living-expense and book benefits are addressed in their own sections below.

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

Because tuition is at or below the annual Post-9/11 benefit, the GI Bill® covers it in full at SNHU.

Yellow Ribbon Program Status Not Reported

Federal data does not indicate that SNHU currently participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Check directly with the school, since participation can change year to year.

Per-Credit Charges vs. the $250 Tuition Assistance Cap

DoD Tuition Assistance pays up to $250 per credit hour for active-duty students; here is how the per-credit charge at SNHU compares.

Residency	Per-credit charge	Below $250 cap?
In-state	$1,000
Out-of-state	$1,000

Housing Allowance Coverage

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® also covers housing through a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA). Here is how that benefit compares to the estimated cost of living at SNHU.

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.

Your Books and Supplies Are Likely Covered

Eligible veterans receive up to $1,000 a year for books and supplies; SNHU estimates these costs at about $1,500, leaving about $500 out of pocket.
