Financial Aid for Tepper School Veterans
The Tepper School is a Yellow Ribbon Participant
Veterans must have 100 percent Post 9/11 GI Bill eligibility; active duty service members, and their spouses using transferred entitlement, may participate in the Yellow Ribbon program. Please send a copy of your certificate of eligibility to uro-vaedbenefits@andrew.
Under our participation level in the Yellow Ribbon program, the Tepper School covers 100 percent of the "gap" between allowable costs and Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits for eligible students, not to exceed $24,703 for up to 45 students through the Tepper School of Business Yellow Ribbon Matching Funds Scholarship.
Please note: The Tepper School’s level of participation in the Yellow Ribbon matching funds may vary annually. Please email uro-vaedbenefits@andrew.smxjjl.com for the most up-to-date information.
