Fordham Expands Opportunities for Veterans: (FORDHAM UNIVERSITY)
June 30, 2009
A new program for returning veterans seeking a Fordham education will be launched in the fall. FordhamVets, an initiative including all of the University's undergraduate, graduate and professional schools, is intended to ensure that academic and support programs are as "veterans-friendly" as possible. Fordham also has committed to participating in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs' Yellow Ribbon Program. This provision of the GI Bill encourages degree-granting institutions to provide tuition assistance to veterans over and above standard VA education benefits.
