Yeshiva University proudly participates in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Yellow Ribbon Program.
Post-9/11 GI Bill recipients may also be eligible for the Yellow Ribbon Program, which will cover any remaining tuition and fees that the Post-9/11 Bill does not cover.
YU will contribute an unlimited amount of funding (to be matched by the VA) for an unlimited number of qualifying post-9/11 veterans under the Yellow Ribbon Program.
⇢Unlimited amount of funding means Yeshiva University will cover 50% of the remaining tuition and fees that exceeds the Post-9/11 GI Bill contribution. The VA will cover the other remaining 50% of the tuition and fees. 100% of the student’s tuition and fees would be covered!
⇢Unlimited number of qualifying post-9/11 veterans means Yeshiva University will offer Yellow Ribbon to every eligible veteran matriculating at YU. YU does not put a cap on the number of recipients per academic year.
