Veterans Can Attend Wytheville Community College With Tuition Fully Covered

Here is how the Post-9/11 GI Bill® tuition benefit stacks up against the published cost of attending WCC. See the living-expense and book sections below for those benefits.

Private Tuition Fully Covered for Veterans

Tuition and fees here fall within the annual Post-9/11 GI Bill® benefit, so eligible veterans typically owe nothing toward tuition at WCC.

Yellow Ribbon Program Status Not Reported

There is no record that WCC participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program in the latest federal data. Contact the veteran services office to confirm whether any programs offer Yellow Ribbon matching.

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

For active-duty students, Tuition Assistance covers up to $250 per credit hour — the indicators below show whether WCC is below that cap.

Residency	Per-credit charge	Below $250 cap?
In-state	$4
Out-of-state	$30

Your Living Expenses Are Likely Covered

Beyond tuition, the Post-9/11 GI Bill® pays a Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) while you are enrolled. Here is how that benefit compares to the estimated cost of living at WCC.

The benefit generally more than covers off-campus living costs here. Your actual MHA depends on your rate of pursuit and the school’s location.

Your Books and Supplies Are Likely Covered

The Post-9/11 GI Bill® pays a books-and-supplies stipend of up to $1,000 per year. Estimated book and supply costs at WCC run about $1,600, leaving about $600 out of pocket.

These figures show the GI Bill® and DoD Tuition Assistance dollars veterans and service members actually used at WCC.
