The Yellow Ribbon Program at Marshall University is designed to assist Chapter 33/Post 9-11 GI Bill students who qualify at the 100% benefit level and are pursuing their education as metro or out-of-state students. Under this agreement, the university and the VA cover the metro or out-of-state cost of attendance, providing a valuable opportunity for military-connected individuals to pursue their academic ambitions.
Marshall University Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Avinandan Mukherjee says providing veterans the new pathway is important to Marshall University.
“Expanding our Yellow Ribbon program to embrace master’s degrees underscores Marshall’s steadfast commitment to empowering our veterans,” Mukherjee said. “By aligning with their academic goals, we strengthen student success and stand strong beside those who’ve served.”
With the addition of master’s degree programs, the university provides a spectrum of available undergraduate and master’s degree programs that military-connected can take advantage of.
By expanding the Yellow Ribbon Program, Marshall University and the VA collaboratively cover the metro and out-of-state tuition, ensuring that military-connected can fully focus on their studies and achieve their academic goals.
