If eligible for housing under the Post 9/11 GI Bill®, housing payments are paid on the first of the month for the previous month’s housing. To obtain the full housing allowance a student must be enrolled in what the VA considers full time and in at least one resident course. To be eligible for any portion of housing, the student must be enrolled over half time each certified term. Housing amounts are prorated based on rate of pursuit. A student enrolled half time is not eligible for any housing payments.
In addition to rate of pursuit, a student taking all distance learning courses would be eligible for only 50% of the national average for BAH.
