Minnesota GI Bill® Program

The Minnesota GI Bill Program at Academy College provides postsecondary financial assistance to veterans, service members, and eligible dependents. This state-funded program is designed to help military-affiliated students cover the costs of their education. Funding amounts are determined by the student's enrollment status, with full-time students qualifying for a higher level of support per semester than those attending on a part-time basis.

To access these benefits, applicants must complete the program's specific application. This can be done by submitting the physical paper application directly to the Academy College financial aid office or by completing the online application process through the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs. Because this is a state-specific military benefit, students should consult with the college's financial aid team to coordinate this aid with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid and other state or federal programs. For current deadlines and application dates, please see the official page.
