Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance federal funding in FY2025
$10,842,038,663 in Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance obligations is the USAspending.gov yearlyTrend figure for fiscal year 2025, about 42.2% of the CFDA 64.028 book of $25,676,072,754. The pair is Post-9/11 veterans educational assistance and FY2025 — not a student-veteran census, not Montgomery GI Bill, and not cash already paid. 36,107 awards sit on the year slice; 87,255 sit on the program parent. Correlation is not causation.

Post-9/11 education in FY2025 is not the whole 64.028 book
An obligation is a recorded commitment, not an outlay. Start there, then name the join: Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance (CFDA 64.028) × FY2025. $10,842,038,663 is the commitment sum on that pair. CFDA 64.028 is Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance. The FY2025 cell is a separate yearlyTrend row from the FY2024 64.028 tie. The figure is not a named-school roster. It is not every federal dollar in FY2025. Program parent /programs/64.028/ and year parent /fiscal-years/2025/ are larger views.
Campaign-finance tables do not fund these USAspending obligations. 42.2% locates FY2025 inside the $25,676,072,754 program extract; it does not rank Post-9/11 veterans educational assistance against other CFDAs as a winner or loser. Other years on 64.028 are other ties. Mixing this cell with other VA education CFDAs, state veterans-home care (64.015), or DIC (64.110) leaves the packet.
What CFDA 64.028 labels
CFDA 64.028 carries the title Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance. That title is a catalog label. It is not a proof of outcomes described in ordinary speech. Packet facts on this side are the name, the number, $25,676,072,754, and 87,255 parent awards. No contractor names appear. Inventing 36,107 enrolled veterans would over-read 36,107.
Fiscal year 2025 on the Post-9/11 series
Fiscal year 2025 is the yearlyTrend year key, not every Post-9/11 term was billed in calendar 2025. FY2025 figures can be incomplete for the current year. Later ingests can restate $10,842,038,663. Awards tagged to another year sit outside this cell. The year hub at /fiscal-years/2025/ still includes every other CFDA in FY2025; quoting $10,842,038,663 as all of FY2025 would be wrong.
36,107 awards are not 36,107 students
36,107 is the year-slice award-record count for Post-9/11 veterans educational assistance in FY2025. The parent lists 87,255. About $300,275.26 is $10,842,038,663 ÷ 36,107, a quotient of packet facts, not a typical invoice. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. 36,107 is not 36,107 enrolled veterans.
Education obligations are not tuition already paid to schools

Those four links are the only hrefs this packet authorizes. None convert the join into other VA education CFDAs, state veterans-home care (64.015), or DIC (64.110) or into a named-recipient file.
