Frequently Asked Questions


 

  • Does Stanford offer financial aid to students?

Yes, Stanford makes it easy to make a high-class education accessible and affordable. Most undergraduate student veterans qualify for need-based financial aid and depending on your income level, it can cover either your tuition or your tuition and room and board. Some veterans even opt to use financial aid and save their benefits for later. Graduate aid is available and it is recommended that you explore the financial aid website and connect with your department.

  • Will Chapters 31 and 33 cover the full cost of tuition at Stanford University?

Yes. Through the Yellow Ribbon Program, Stanford University is able to cover the full cost of tuition and associated fees for eligible students. However, students are responsible for covering housing and meal expenses, typically using their BAH.
