Discover international universities where your Post-9/11 GI Bill may apply.
Browse our list of VA-approved foreign schools abroad—600+ institutions outside the United States you can filter by country, city, and program level. This is not a list of domestic U.S. campuses. For eligibility and how to apply, see how to apply for the GI Bill (submitted through VA.gov).
Schools in this directory are VA-listed foreign institutions. Counts in parentheses reflect what VA publishes today—most foreign schools are tagged graduate/professional; bachelor’s is not listed separately in this VA export. Tuition appears only when VA publishes it—confirm costs with the school and the GI Bill Comparison Tool before you enroll.

GI Global helps veterans find VA-listed foreign universities where Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits may apply—direct enrollment overseas, not a U.S. school study-abroad exchange. Read the GI Bill guide — apply first, then explore schools abroad, browse the Japan for veterans guide, or search the list of VA-approved foreign schools above.
Browse countries and cities that match the kind of experience you want next.
Compare VA-listed institutions and open admissions links when a school looks promising.
Verify GI Bill approval, visa requirements, housing, timelines, and program-specific requirements.
On a family trip in Vienna, I walked past the University of Vienna and wondered: What if I’d studied here after my first enlistment? I could have traveled all over Europe by train. It turns out I could have—had I known to look in the VA directory. My Post-9/11 GI Bill may have covered international tuition and provided a monthly housing allowance, depending on eligibility and the program.
There are 600+ VA-listed institutions around the world. That was a missed opportunity that cut deep. Most SOPs are built on someone else’s mistakes—I hope you learn from mine.
After organizing the data in a Harvard Extension database project and refining the idea through Boots to Business at NAVSTA Norfolk, GI Global slowly took shape.
Continue your adventure. Use your benefits. Enjoy studying abroad.
