Yellow Ribbon Program
It appears as though Cogswell College participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, but we could not determine if there are restrictions of this participation. If you have tuition and fees charges that are not covered by your Post-9/11 benefits, you may be able to get additional assistance in the form of a Yellow Ribbon Award so check with the college.
Cogswell College awarded a total of $42,534 in Yellow Ribbon benefits last year. This was split among 10 veterans for an average award of $4,253 ($8,507 after government matching).
