Yellow Ribbon Program for eligible Veterans

About the Yellow Ribbon Program at St. Mary’s

In gratitude of your service to our country, St. Mary’s University participates in The Yellow Ribbon Program.

Through this program, St. Mary’s assures eligible veterans who enroll that applicable undergraduate, graduate, or law tuition and fees that exceed the cap, a portion of the difference will be covered. The University will contribute a set amount and the Veterans Administration will match the same amount. Yellow Ribbon contributions will not be made towards certificate programs at St. Mary’s.

Veterans who are eligible for the Pell Grant can receive these funds in addition to the amount received through the Yellow Ribbon Program.

Therefore, you may be eligible if:

• You served an aggregate period of active duty after Sept. 10, 2001 of at least 36 months
• You were honorably discharged from active duty for a service connected disability and you served 30 continuous days after Sept. 10, 2001
• You are a dependent eligible for Transfer of Entitlement under the Post-9/11 GI Bill based on a veteran’s service under the eligibility criteria listed above
