MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YELLOW RIBBON FUNDS

Yellow Ribbon Funds are generously donated by the Clayton State University’s Alumni Association; therefore, once the total amount donated is exhausted, no more funds will be available until more funds are donated. The student is responsible for the charges that are not paid by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Yellow Ribbon Funds are distributed on a first-come, first serve basis. It is based on the order that students that have submitted all required documents, requested yellow ribbon funds, and registered for classes. Changes to enrollment, charges or status can affect the amount of Yellow Ribbon Funds distributed on his/her behalf. Students that have received Yellow Ribbon Funds for 2 or more semesters are moved to the bottom of the list and will only be able to receive more yellow ribbon funds if they are still available at the end of the current semester.

Please be mindful that Yellow Ribbon is in conjuction with Chapter 33: Post 9/11 GI Bill® VA Educational Benefit.
