Attend Mercy College as a Veteran and Walk Away With at Least $14,311

Thanks to the Post-9/11 GI Bill® (assuming you fully qualify), we expect your yearly benefits to exceed your cost to attend Mercy College by at least $14,311.

Private College Tuition Not Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

Even if you qualify for full benefits, the tuition and fees charged by Mercy College will not be fully covered. Mercy College charges $20,378 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 Mercy College 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.

Mercy College awarded a total of $37,900 in Yellow Ribbon benefits last year. This was split among 21 veterans for an average award of $1,805 ($3,610 after government matching).
