Air Force Students

The Yellow Ribbon GI Education Enhancement Program, or the “Yellow Ribbon Program,” is a provision of the Post 9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008 meant to assist with tuition costs that exceed the in-state college tuition normally provided. This provision allows colleges to enter an agreement with the Department of Veterans Affairs to help fund any cost that exceeds the highest public in-state undergraduate tuition rate. This is especially important for private colleges that might be charging more per semester than a student’s local college campus. Colleges may contribute up to fifty percent of the additional expenses that exceed the Post 9/11 GI Bill’s benefits and the VA will match the same amount, dollar-for-dollar.

Volunteer In South America

In traditional Saint Leo spirit, volunteer groups comprised of students and employees packed up their work boots and traveling gear starting March 12 for seven different destinations, all with a common goal.

The travelers are going to volunteer their free time and labor to communities in need. Instead of sleeping in or heading to the beach for the week of March 16, this year’s SERVE (Students Engaged in Rewarding Volunteer Experience) program participants are headed to Atlanta, New Orleans, the Florida Keys, New Jersey, Alaska, Ecuador and Honduras.
