Attend University of Vermont as a Veteran and Walk Away With at Least $924

Thanks to the Post-9/11 GI Bill® (assuming you fully qualify), we expect your yearly benefits to exceed your cost to attend University of Vermont by at least $924.

Veteran Sticker Price	$35,882
Guaranteed Post-9/11 Benefits	$36,806
Total In Your Pocket	$924

Public College Tuition Fully Covered by GI Bill® Benefits

If you live in Vermont and you qualify for full benefits, your tuition and fees will be covered by your Post-9/11 benefits. If you live outside of Vermont and it has been less than three years since your discharge University of Vermont will consider you an in-state student anyways and you will be fully covered.

Veteran Tuition And Fees	$19,062
Guaranteed Post-9/11 Benefit*	$19,062
Total In Your Pocket	-$0
*Note: The tuition benefit is capped at the lessor of the actual tuition charged to you or $20,235.

Remember, some forms of aid such as Pell Grants are awarded in addition to your Post-9/11 GI Bill® benefits so be sure to fill out your FASA forms.

Yellow Ribbon Program

It appears as though University of Vermont 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.

Remember, only veterans who qualify for full Post-9/11 benefits are eligible to participate in a Yellow Ribbon program.

University of Vermont awarded a total of $124,357 in Yellow Ribbon benefits last year. This was split among 19 veterans for an average award of $6,545 ($13,090 after government matching).

Questions to Ask the Admissions Department

Which programs and majors (if any) participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program and how do I apply?

Per Credit Fees and the Active Duty Tuition Assistance Cap

With a per credit charge for in-state students of $683, University of Vermont falls above the tuition assistance cap of $250 for active duty personnel.

Below Cap for State Residents?	$683 per credit
Below Cap for Non Residents (Out of State)?	$1,720 per credit

Almost all public colleges treat full-time non-resident veterans as in-state students. You should check with University of Vermont to see if that policy is true for part-time students as well.

Your Living Expenses Likely Covered

After applying eight months of your assumed MHA against what University of Vermont thinks your living expenses should be, we see a potential credit in your favor of $1,124. It is possible that your living expenses will be more than covered!

Off Campus Living Expenses	$15,620
Post-9/11 Benefit	$16,744
Total In Your Pocket	$1,124

A MHA of $2,093 is likely the largest benefit paid directly to you.

Your book stipend of $1000 will not cover what University of Vermont estimates your expenses to be ($1,200).

Supplies Expenses	$1,200
Post-9/11 Benefit	$1,000
Total Out Of Pocket	$200
