The Post-9/11 GI Bill®.
Under this bill, up to 100 percent of veterans’ undergraduate tuition and fees would be paid directly to the school in which they enroll. Veterans who are 100 percent eligible will receive $17,500 per school year. These limitations also apply to transferee spouses of active duty service members. More information can be found by visiting the GI Bill® website.
