Veterans Day Nov 11th

ATTENTION ALL OUT OF STATE STUDENT VETERANS

If you are using the Post 9/11 GI Bill and are rated at 100%, you may be eligible for the Yellow Ribbon Program.

The Yellow Ribbon GI Education Enhancement Program (Yellow Ribbon Program) is a provision of the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008. This program allows institutions of higher learning (degree granting institutions) in the United States to voluntarily enter into an agreement with VA to fund tuition and fee expenses that exceed the highest public in-state undergraduate tuition rate. The institution can contribute up to 50% of those expenses and VA will match the same amount as the institution.

This program will assist you to cover the additional out of state fees.

HOW MANY SLOTS ARE AVAILABLE?

The University of South Florida will offer 24 for undergraduates, 10 for master level students, and 4 for doctoral students in the College of Medicine.
