GI Bill School Comparison

Compare up to five VA-approved schools side by side — what the GI Bill covers, what you pay, and what graduates earn.

Loading the school list…
The GI Bill pays public in-state tuition in full with no cap. Out-of-state charges at a public school are not covered above the private-school cap.
Yellow Ribbon amounts are set per degree level.

Search for a school, add up to five, then press Compare Schools.

What this does that VA’s tool does not

It puts the schools side by side and applies your benefit tier and residency to all of them at once — so the out-of-pocket line is directly comparable rather than something you work out school by school.

The underlying data is VA’s own public export from the GI Bill Comparison Tool, so the tuition, salary, debt, caution flag and Yellow Ribbon figures are the same ones VA publishes.

  • Public in-state tuition is uncapped — the GI Bill pays all of it.
  • Private, foreign and public out-of-state charges are capped.
  • Yellow Ribbon can close the gap, but only at the 100% tier.

Estimates only. Figures come from VA’s GI Bill Comparison Tool public export — tuition, median salary, average loan debt, caution flags and Yellow Ribbon amounts are as VA publishes them, and VA notes many are self-reported by institutions and can be out of date or missing. Median salary and debt figures cover all students, not veterans specifically, and reflect the institution rather than your program. Confirm current tuition and Yellow Ribbon terms with each school before relying on them. Source: VA GI Bill Comparison Tool.
