What is the Yellow Ribbon Program provision of the Post-9/11 GI Bill?
Out-of-pocket tuition and fees associated with education programs (especially at private schools) may exceed Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits. Schools that enter into the Yellow Ribbon Program agree to fund up to 50 percent of those additional costs. The VA agrees to match every dollar that the school pays, with the combined payout not to exceed the school’s actual tuition/fees charge.
