by our College Data Analytics TeamWill you go to Union Presbyterian for free thanks to the G.I. Bill®? Coverage is not unlimited and varies school to school, so the fine print is worth checking.
Federal data does not indicate that Union Presbyterian currently participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Contact the veteran services office to confirm whether any programs offer Yellow Ribbon matching.
Beyond tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® pays a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) while you are enrolled. The table compares the housing benefit to estimated living expenses at Union Presbyterian.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $4,675 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $2,391/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $19,128 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $14,453 |
At this school the academic-year housing benefit exceeds typical living costs, so most full-time students come out ahead. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.
Beyond the coverage math above, this is how much veteran education-benefit money actually flows to Union Presbyterian.
In the latest reporting year, about 1 Post-9/11 recipients used tuition benefits worth $125.
| Benefit | Recipients | Total disbursed | Average / recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| GI Bill® (all students) | 2 | $275 | $138 |
| GI Bill® — graduate | 2 | $275 | — |
These are federal education benefits — the Post-9/11 GI Bill® for veterans and DoD Tuition Assistance for active-duty members.
