Yellow Ribbon Participation Could Not Be Determined

Sumner College is not listed as a Yellow Ribbon participant in current federal reporting. Check directly with the school, since participation can change year to year.

Housing Allowance Coverage

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 Sumner College.

Item	Amount
Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA)	$2,460/mo

The Monthly Housing Allowance is paid for the months you are enrolled and is meant to offset off-campus living costs. 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; Sumner College estimates these costs at about $0, so the stipend covers them in full.
