The Yellow Ribbon Program is
a provision of the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational
Assistance Act of 2008. This program allows
degree granting institutions of higher learning
in the U.S. to voluntarily enter into an agreement
with the VA to fund tuition expenses for eligible
veterans. Details and eligibility guidelines
for Post 9/11 benefits, including the Yellow
Ribbon Program, can be found at www.gibill.va.gov under
Education Benefits. |

-
The VA will match your school’s commitment. The
combined school award and VA match may not
exceed the difference between the recipient’s
actual tuition charges and the recipient’s
basic Post-9/11 tuition benefit
-
Federal law states that Yellow Ribbon awards
must be made on a first-come, first-serve basis
-
Each school will have its own queue
-
Applicants will be placed in the queue based
on the date they present the VA Certificate
of Eligibility (COE), indicating Yellow Ribbon
eligibility, to Penn’s Registrar’s
Office. (Phone calls or email inquiries will
not hold a place in the queue.)
