“In-Residence” and Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH)
The following is a federal U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs definition used for housing-allowance eligibility: “Veteran students who are enrolled as in-resident students are required to attend onsite for a minimum of one (1) 50-minute class session during the term to be considered ‘In-Residence’ for determining a student’s Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH).” Your School Certifying Official can explain how this applies to your enrollment and benefits.
