GI Bill® Benefits + Tuition Assistance

We are proud to support veterans in utilizing their GI Bill® benefits. For more information on education benefits offered by the US Department of Veterans Affairs, please visit benefits.va.gov/gibill. Additional information on financial resources for veterans is available on our financial aid webpage

Veterans are welcome to enroll in any of our programs. However, not all courses or programs are eligible for VA benefits. Because eligibility is unique to each individual's GI Bill® or other education benefit package, it is your responsibility to confirm your chosen program is covered by the VA before you enroll. Any costs for non-covered programs are the student's responsibility. 

  • For questions about benefits: Contact the VA at 1-888-GIBILL-1 (that's 888-442-4551) or visit va.gov/education.
