On August 1, the new GI Bill will kick in, bringing with it increased education benefits for people who have served in the military since 2001.  At least in theory. The new GI Bill covers an undergraduate student’s full tuition and fees at any four-year state college anywhere in the country, which is a more generous benefit than the veteran aid students received under the old GI Bill.  Eligible students will also receive an additional monthly housing stipend, and thanks to the recently approved HEA Technical Corrections legislation , these benefits won’t be counted as income for purposes of determining federal student financial aid eligibility. The GI Bill also includes a new program that gives veterans benefits at private colleges and allows schools to match federal VA benefits for their students.  More than 1,100 private colleges signed up to participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program, which should allow veterans to attend a larger number of institutes of higher education at little cost
