Military Veterans: Yellow Ribbon Program
Posted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 11:26 pm
For all my fellow veteran's out there, I just wanted to make sure everyone was aware of the VA Yellow Ribbon Program
http://www.gibill.va.gov/GI_Bill_info/c ... ribbon.htm
Many law schools participate, notably UCLA and Michigan Law, although there are many others as well.
I'm posting this because I didn't know about it until someone else told me, so I don't think knowledge of this program is very high
For those Vets who didn't know about this, hope it helps . . . I copied the description of the program in below.

"The Post-9/11 GI Bill pays up to the highest public in-state undergraduate tuition and fees. You may have tuition and fees that exceed that amount if you are attending a private institution, graduate school or attending in an out-of-state status. If you are enrolled at a Yellow Ribbon participating institution and the tuition and fees exceed the highest public in-state undergraduate tuition or fees, additional funds may be available for your education program without an additional charge to your entitlement
Institutions that voluntarily enter into a Yellow Ribbon Agreement with VA choose the amount of tuition and fees that will be contributed. VA will match that amount and issue payment directly to the institution."
