Tuition Assistance Top Up Program Eligibility

Week of December 15, 2008

To be eligible for the Top-Up benefit, you must be approved for federal Tuition Assistance by a military department and be eligible for MGIB AD benefits. To be eligible you must be a GI Bill participant, still on active duty, and must have served at least two full years. The amount of the benefit is limited to the amount that the person would receive for the same course if regular MGIB benefits were being paid. In no case can the amount paid by the military combined with the amount paid by VA be more than the total cost of the course. See a list of FAQ's.
