Education

The Post-9/11 GI Bill
The most popular GI Bill program, the Post-9/11 GI Bill provides up to full college tuition, as well as money for housing and books. Paid directly to the school, the program covers up to full tuition for public, in-state schools and up to $25,000 per year at private or foreign schools, depending on your length of service.

The Montgomery GI Bill – Active Duty
This option uses a combination of your own paycheck contributions and government funding to help pay for education benefits for a maximum of 36 months. Unlike the Post-9/11 GI Bill, benefit payments will be made directly to you.

The Montgomery GI Bill – Selected Reserve
This program helps members of the Army Reserve and Army National Guard pay for education benefits for a maximum of 36 months, in return for a six-year service commitment. These benefits must be used while you are serving and end when you stop serving.

In addition to college and university tuition, all GI Bill programs cover training and certifications including:
  • Online schooling and correspondence courses.
  • Part-time schooling.
  • Entrepreneurship training for those interested in starting a small business.
  • Flight school.
  • Licensing and certification courses.
  • Vocational training and trade schools.
