About the Yellow Ribbon Program

The Yellow Ribbon Program is available to students who are eligible to receive 100% of the benefits payable under the Post-9/11 GI Bill.  16 of Columbia's schools and programs are participating in the Yellow Ribbon Program, an initiative authorized by the Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008 (the Post-9/11 GI Bill) in which educational institutions provide eligible student veterans with a tuition waiver or grant matched by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs.  This program supplements the base educational benefits provided by the Post-9/11 GI Bill. 

Please visit the Columbia University Veteran Affairs website for more information about the Yellow Ribbon Program.
