WHY WE VALUE VETERANS
Across Columbia’s 17 schools, U.S. military veterans play an integral part in the student life, academic endeavors, and intellectual accomplishments of the University. With almost 700 student-veterans, Columbia has established itself as a leader in the Ivy League in recruiting students with military experience and ensuring they have the financial resources to attend through Yellow Ribbon and Tuition Assistance programs. Furthermore, Columbia’s robust student affairs, health services, and other resources, ensure that service members receive support in pursuing their educational endeavors to completion. It is an honor to have these incredible men and women at Columbia University.
