The dollars you get for your education may change significantly, because as of August 1st, 2009, the G.I. Bill Government benefits are being recalculated. In order to choose the program that best suits your needs, it’s crucial that you are aware of the differences.
There is one significant difference in the benefits due to the Post 9/11 GI Bill, which usually results in the benefits being greater than under the Montgomery GI Bill’s provisions.
These are the ways in which the two Bills that have already been mentioned differ.
The Post 9/11 Bill will pay directly to the school you select all tuition and fees up to the cost of the most expensive state Institution of Higher Education of the Sate the school you select resides.
You would even be eligible for a housing allowance that depends on an E-5 with dependence. Part of the funds received from the GI Bill are determined by the school’s location, based on its zip code.
You would even get a stipend of about $1,000 per year for books.
Compare this amount to the $1,321 monthly payment from the Montgomery GI Bill, which is less than the Post 9/11 GI Bill – but that amount should not be your only deciding factor.
One such thing to consider is, some States the cost of tuition and housing would be less than the $1,321 monthly allowance you would receive under the Montgomery Bill., therefore making it the best choice.
There even exist States that possess Colleges which do not charge Veterans tuition, and this may even make the Montgomery Bill more suitable.
You will have more options due to the Post 9/11 GI Bill, but you have to do research to choose the right school.
You will only have one chance to make the correct selection between the two Bills, and once you make that choice you can not change your mind.
The easiest way to make the right choice is to contact Military friendly schools within the Sate that you want to attend classes, and allow them to help you pick the Bill that will pay you the most benefits.
Military friendly Schools would contain staff that knows the various GI Bill Government programs, and it is in their best interest to aid you in taking the correct decision.
