Veterans who are both 100% VA Benefits and Yellow Ribbon program eligible: Olin programs are virtually free for the duration of your entitlements.

You will receive the Basic Tuition benefit, plus Yellow Ribbon:

  • FY 25 standard tuition benefit of $24,476.79
  • Remainder of tuition owed will be split between the VA and Olin Business School.

Veterans who are not 100% eligible:

  • You will receive your (% eligibility) * ($24,476.79 tuition benefit)
  • Full-time MBA students may also be eligible for the Olin Veterans Association Scholarship (at the discretion of the MBA Admissions Committee).

WashU Student Accounts will post anticipated VA funds towards tuition at the beginning of the semester. Students do not have to “front” any portion of the bill that will be covered by VA benefits. If you are Yellow Ribbon, then you should not have to make a tuition payment. If you are NOT Yellow Ribbon eligible, you are responsible for any tuition and fees owed in excess of your benefit. (Please be aware that the university is not involved in the BAH or book stipend process. Those funds will come directly to you from the VA.)
