Description

The Post 9-11 Vets. Educ. Assistance Act (Post 9-11 VEAA), which became effective on 8/1/09, provides active and reserve component servicemembers with a more generous benefit than existing benefits by providing: (1) full tuition and fees up to the amount of tuition and fees regularly charged to in-state students at the most expensive public institution in a reservist's state; (2) a monthly stipend for living exp.; and (3) an annual stipend for books and required educ. expenses. This report discusses: (1) the trends in total reservists' compensation and the projected cost of the Post 9-11 VEAA; and (2) the progress that DoD and VA have made in assessing the merits and feasibility of transferring the administration for existing educ. benefits from DoD to VA.
