黄丝带计划

In gratitude for your service to our nation, every year since 2011-12 and again for 2023-2024, UIW is a Yellow Ribbon School for the eligible 100% Post 9-11 students and may fund the tuition and fee expenses that exceed the VA national annual maximum allotted to private institutions.

黄丝带是什么?

The 黄丝带计划 allows private schools to enter into an agreement with the VA to fund the tuition and fee costs that exceeds the yearly national cap of $27,120.05 for students enrolled in private institutions (after Aug. 1, 2023). The 黄丝带计划 is utilized in conjunction with student's Post 9-11 GI Bill® and funds are paid directly to the school when the enrollment certification is processed. UIW will match the 50% VA contribution and fund 50% of the remaining unmet tuition and fee charges for all eligible students.

重要的笔记

  • Awards are made to qualified applicants on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • The amount each student will receive from UIW will vary according to the cost of their degree program and any tuition specific scholarships or grant they may have been awarded. The 黄丝带计划 award cannot be combined with other University of the Incarnate Word institutional awards to result in a surplus for the student.
  • Yellow Ribbon contributions will not be adjusted after the last day to drop classes without a W assigned. Any costs accrued due to adding or dropping classes after that date each semester will be the responsibility of the student.
  • Once UIW receives the Yellow Ribbon funding from VA and has been posted to the student’s account, the UIW Office of Financial Assistance will add the matching amount. Please be aware, the standard processing time for the VA is 4-6 weeks.
  • Once selected for the 黄丝带计划 at UIW, students will be funded each year they are in their current program of study as long as UIW continues and is approved to renew its agreement with the VA each academic year. UIW has the right to reduce awards or discontinue the program at the end of each academic year.
