The Books and Supplies Stipend is paid up to $1000/annually, at $41.67 per credit, if 100% eligible.

  • Max of 24 credits covered each academic year.
  • $1000 stipend balance resets every August.
  • Paid to the student at the beginning of each semester once their semester enrollment is processed by VA.
  • Funds are sent to the bank account that student lists on the Post 9/11 application with VA.
  • We recommend paying for books out of pocket and then using the stipend to help reimburse for the upfront costs. 

Formula: $41.67 x # of credits x Applicable eligibility tier percentage

Examples:

  • 100% eligible for Post 9/11
    • $41.67 x 15 credits for Fall semester x 100% eligibility tier = $625.05
    • $374.95 is available for the next semester
  • 50% eligible for Post 9/11
    • $41.67 x 15 credits for Fall semester x 50% eligibility tier = $312.53
    • $187.47 is available for the next semester
