Benefit-focused military support header (H2)

Benedictine University is grateful for the service of the men and women of the U.S. military. We offer special benefits to military members and their spouses and also participate in a number of government programs that support veteran and active duty service member education.

NOTE: New header required, but revise content as needed for this section.

Yellow Ribbon Program

Benedictine participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Degree-granting institutions of higher learning participating in the Yellow Ribbon Program agree to make additional funds available for your education program without drawing on your GI Bill entitlement. These institutions voluntarily enter into a Yellow Ribbon Agreement with the VA and choose the amount of tuition and fees that will be contributed. The VA matches that amount and issues payments directly to the institution.

NOTE: New header required, but revise content as needed for this section.

Military Scholarship — 10% Off

  • Complete the VA Electronic Application.

    The application is online at: https://www.ebenefits.va.gov/ebenefits/homepage.
    Once you are approved for benefits, the VA will issue you a Certificate of Eligibility within 90 days. Submit a copy of this certificate to the Office of Financial Aid.

    Note that you can also submit a copy of your online application to the Office of Financial Aid, and it will serve as initial certification documentation to start processing your aid request.

    Submit a copy of your DD214.
  • Students who are no longer on active duty must submit a copy of their DD214 to the Office of Financial Aid.
  • Complete and submit Benedictine’s VA Certification Request and Student Responsibility Certification form. Download the form here.
