Yellow Ribbon Funds

Interested in Yellow Ribbon Benefits?

•  100% eligible for Chapter 33: Post 911 benefits
• Charged out-of-state tuition because they do not meet the criteria for in-state residency or out-of-state waivers (including military and recently separated from military waivers). 
• UNC Pembroke is designated as your HOME Institution; therefore, you are not a Transient Student.

Yellow Ribbon funds are available to five undergraduate students per year. The maximum Yellow Ribbon funding per student, per year is $1,000. Once the annual funds are exhausted, no more funds will be available until the next academic year.

The student is responsible for the charges that are not paid by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Funds are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis and selection is based on the order in which students submit all required documents, request yellow ribbon funds and register for classes. Changes to enrollment or status can affect the amount of funds distributed on a student's behalf. Students who have received Yellow Ribbon funds for two or more semesters are moved to the bottom of the list and can only receive more Yellow Ribbon funds if they are still available.

Yellow Ribbon is in conjunction with Chapter 33: Post 9/11 GI Bill® VA Educational Benefit.
