Yellow Ribbon

Wake Forest University School of Law is proud to be a participant of the Yellow Ribbon program. To be considered for a Wake Forest Law Yellow Ribbon award, you must be eligible for the maximum benefit rate under the Post-9/11 GI Bill® (100% eligibility tier) as determined by the VA. The 2023-2024 national maximum for private schools is $27,120.05.

Yellow Ribbon can be awarded once the tuition and fee cap has been reached for the academic year. Yellow Ribbon cannot exceed net tuition and fees. Awards are first-come, first-served.

As of August 1, 2022, active-duty service members, and spouses of active-duty service members using transferred benefits, may qualify for the Yellow Ribbon program.
