VA releases new GI Bill rates

Post-9/11 GI Bill tuition and fee caps for the 2010-2011 have been released by the Veterans Affairs Department, providing key numbers that will allow the processing of payments to colleges and universities for students enrolled in the fall term.

The caps, based on information provided by state approving agency information about the highest rates for in-state tuition charged by public institutions in the state, set the maximum payment levels for students using the year-old education benefits program.

While the trend generally is upwards in terms of college costs, there are some extreme increases and decreases in the cost-per-credit hour and maximum fees.

For the full story on what this means for students, look for the Sept. 13 issues of the Military Times papers, on newsstands Monday.
