Yellow Ribbon Program

We’re proud to participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program in partnership with the Department of Veteran Affairs to enhance financial access for military-connected students.

The Yellow Ribbon Program (YRP) is structured to take effect once an eligible participant has met the Post-9/11 private tuition maximum for the VA year. Once the Post-9/11 private tuition maximum has been met, the school will contribute YRP funding up to the remaining balance for the academic year. This amount will be  matched by the VA up to the limit for each campus. The following Arizona College of Nursing campuses are currently approved to participate in the YRP: Tampa, Tempe, Tucson, Dallas, Fort Lauderdale, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, and Southfield; and the following Arizona College campuses are currently approved to participate in the YRP: Mesa and Glendale.
