I’ve been reading online and it’s consistently stating that you will get screwed out of 400-500 bucks for attending an online university..
Are there any online universities that do pay out full? Is in class the only option for full BAH?
Thanks y’all!

You get paid lsess because you're online instead of brick-and-motor. The only exclusion is if you have one or more classes in-school.

For 2019 here is the value: Exclusively Online Training (No Classroom Instruction) – $894.50 per month. Read more: https://militarybenefits.info/post-911-gi-bill-bah-rate-online-colleges/#ixzz67Sj3g31i
My understanding is that you must take at least one class in a physical classroom to receive full BAH.
If you are less than full time (less than 12 undergraduate credits) your BAH will be reduced. https://gibill.custhelp.va.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/1480/~/how-is-my-housing-allowance-paid-if-im-not-a-full-time-student%3F
