Yellow Ribbon Program
Lehigh University is a proud participant in the Yellow Ribbon Program, which provides funding to cover tuition and fee charges that are not covered by the Post-911 G.I. Bill (Chapter 33) Benefits.
The VA will match Lehigh’s Yellow Ribbon Program funding.
Lehigh Yellow Ribbon is available to all undergraduate students who are eligible and will cover the remainder of the tuition that the Post – 9/11 GI Bill does not cover. Lehigh Yellow Ribbon is also available to 40 new graduate students, with a cap of $2,000/academic year. The first 40 new graduate students to submit the university’s required VA benefit survey will be selected to receive the Yellow Ribbon Benefits.
Important Notes
The Office of Financial Aid will send an email communication at the end of each semester to all enrolled students who are utilizing VA benefits to confirm if they will be using their benefit the following semester. Students must respond to this email each semester so that our office can certify your enrollment for your VA Benefits.
You must notify the Office of Financial Aid if you withdraw from any courses or have any changes in enrollment during the semester in which you are receiving VA benefits.
Please contact Tami Bauder with any additional questions or concerns that you have regarding the VA benefit process.
