Yellow Ribbon Program schools Ohio

The matching Yellow Ribbon Program, optional for colleges and universities, is designed to fill the gap between the VA benefit and the cost of tuition at a veteran’s college of choice if its cost is higher than the state institution’s. This level of benefit is reserved for those at the 100% benefit level, i.e. those who have served at least 36 months on active duty or served at least 30 continuous days and were discharged due to a service-related injury.

After the post-9/11 GI Bill benefit is applied to those at the 100% benefit level, NDC would waive half of the remaining tuition with the VA matching this additional funding for eligible students. This will enable qualified students to essentially attend Notre Dame College tuition-free. Tuition and fees cannot exceed the full cost of the school’s tuition and fees charged.
