Top-Up
Top-Up is a program that allows active duty GI Bill® participants to use their benefits to supplement tuition and fees not covered by Tuition Assistance. Top-Up may be an option if you plan to use Tuition Assistance to complete a degree program while on active duty and don’t plan to continue your education after service.
The Top-Up program is only available for recipients of Montgomery GI Bill® Active Duty or Post-9/11 GI Bill® programs. Eligibility for Top-Up depends on a number of factors. You’ll need to carefully consider your situation and check with your education officer before applying for Top-Up.
Top-Up is limited to:
- 36 months of payment
- The amount that you would receive for the same course if regular benefits were being used
- If you are receiving MGIB-AD, you will receive the difference between what the Department of Defense pays for the course and the total cost of the course (not to exceed to GI Bill® monthly maximum).
- If you are receiving the Post-9/11 GI Bill®, your school will be reimbursed the difference between the amount the Department of Defense pays for the course and the authorized maximum tuition and fees for the school.
