<p>On feature that I particularly like is that Albright has an “accelerated degree completion program” to help veterans complete bachelor’s degrees started earlier. (Albright is a small Methodist college in Reading, Pennsylvania.)</p>

Albright College to Provide Tuition-Free Education for Veterans</p>
<p>Reading, Pa. - Albright Colleges new Yellow Ribbon Veterans Award will allow qualified veterans of the U.S. Armed Services to earn an Albright degree at no cost.</p>
<p>Albright will offer qualifying veterans an award that covers the difference between federal veterans subsidies and Albright tuition. The Post-9/11 GI Bill and the Yellow Ribbon GI Education Enhancement Program provide subsidies to veterans who have served at least 36 months of active duty after September 11, 2001, and who enroll as full- or part-time undergraduate or graduate students. The College will cover the remainder of the tuition.</p>
<p>At Albright, veterans may enroll in the traditional undergraduate program, the Accelerated Degree Start Program, the Accelerated Degree Completion Program, or the masters degree program.</p>
<p>Veterans may apply now for the fall semester. The Post 9/11 GI Bill is effective August 1.</p>
<p>A college education is essential for our veterans futures. In these challenging economic times we are happy to help them to begin or complete their education at no cost and without a debt burden when they graduate, said Albright president Lex O. McMillan III. We are pleased to offer them the many benefits of attending a small, private institution like Albright, with its close -knit community and exceptional student-faculty ratio.</p>
