by our College Data Analytics TeamHow much of the cost at Westminster Theological Seminary will the G.I. Bill® cover? Coverage is not unlimited and varies school to school, so the fine print is worth checking.
Westminster Theological Seminary is not listed as a Yellow Ribbon participant in current federal reporting. If you need benefits beyond the Post-9/11 cap, ask the schools veteran services office whether any programs participate.
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 Westminster Theological Seminary.
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Estimated living expenses (room & board, academic year) | $3,690 |
| Post-9/11 monthly housing allowance (MHA) | $3,027/mo |
| Housing benefit (academic year, ~8 months) | $24,216 |
| Estimated surplus in your pocket | $20,526 |
The benefit generally more than covers off-campus living costs here. The MHA is based on the school’s ZIP code and is paid at the full-time rate for resident students.
Beyond the coverage math above, this is how much veteran education-benefit money actually flows to Westminster Theological Seminary.
Roughly 28 Post-9/11 recipients used tuition benefits worth $202,172.
| Benefit | Recipients | Total disbursed | Average / recipient |
|---|---|---|---|
| GI Bill® (all students) | 15 | $89,670 | $5,978 |
| GI Bill® — graduate | 15 | $89,670 | — |
| DoD Tuition Assistance (all) | 4 | $4,500 | $1,125 |
| DoD TA — graduate | 4 | $4,500 | — |
GI Bill® dollars are paid on the veterans behalf, while DoD Tuition Assistance supports active-duty service members.
