Veterans Typically Attend Centenary University for no More Than $15,937

If you qualify for full benefits under the Post-9/11 GI Bill® we estimate that your yearly out of pocket cost to attend Centenary University should not be more than $15,937.

Private College Tuition Not Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

Even if you qualify for full benefits, the tuition and fees charged by Centenary University will not be fully covered. Centenary University charges $34,498 a year for tuition and fees but your maximum Post-9/11 benefit is only $20,235. In order to make up the shortfall you will need some additional aid from the college and/or government.

Yellow Ribbon Program

It appears as though Centenary University participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, but we could not determine if there are restrictions of this participation. If you have tuition and fees charges that are not covered by your Post-9/11 benefits, you may be able to get additional assistance in the form of a Yellow Ribbon Award so check with the college.

Centenary University awarded a total of $17,477 in Yellow Ribbon benefits last year. This was split among 3 veterans for an average award of $5,826 ($11,651 after government matching).
