In some cases the G.I. Bill foots the entire bill for a four-year degree. But assistance can also be used for opportunities including vocational training programs, apprenticeships, correspondence schools, and licensing and certification costs.
There are actually two main G.I. Bill programs. The Post-9/11 G.I. Bill pays up to 36 months of tuition, housing, books, and supplies at qualifying schools for veterans who served since Sept. 11. Benefits are available for 15 years from the last day of active duty and may be transferrable to spouses or dependents.
The Montgomery G.I. Bill pays 36 straight months of educational benefits directly to students who were enlisted continuously for at least two years, and benefits are available for 10 years after the last day of active duty.
Many vets qualify for both programs, and there are additional benefits for reservists, surviving spouses, and dependents.
