"My mother is a veteran and transferred her Post-9/11 GI Bill® VA education benefits to me. Now I pay $0 out-of-pocket for tuition, and I even get a monthly housing allowance. And because NewU University is approved to accept VA education benefits for all programs, it allowed me to switch majors and still get everything covered. If even one of your parents is active duty military or a veteran, college could be free for you here. I enjoy the small campus community, and I’m excited to graduate a year sooner with a NewU 3-year bachelor's degree."
