Veterans bring a high level of leadership, teamwork, and grace under pressure to Tuck.
They contribute meaningfully in the classroom as well as to their study groups and project teams. Military MBAs have proven themselves in multiple areas and corporate recruiters value the knowledge and experience they add, gained from their years of service and from their MBA education.
Attend the Tuck Veterans Symposium
An opportunity for prospective students to gain valuable insight and advice on the MBA admissions process, the Tuck Veterans Symposium will be held September 26-28, 2020. Due to COVID-19, this fall's event will take place virtually.
Community
Veterans are a vibrant and vital part of what makes the Tuck community distinctive among the world’s top MBA programs. Whether they are sharing their unique leadership skills or demonstrating what it means to be a part of a team, veteran students contribute greatly to the Tuck community. Coming to Tuck with a partner and/or family? There are many clubs, organizations and resources to make both you and your partner feel part of Tuck and the greater Hanover community from the day you arrive on campus.

Funding your MBA
An MBA is a significant investment of time and financial resources. In addition to the financial aid and scholarship opportunities offered, Tuck also participates in the Post-9/11 GI Bill® and Yellow Ribbon Program, which allows institutions to enter into a voluntary agreement with the VA to fund tuition and fee expenses that exceed the annual VA cap. We are proud to support our veterans, whose strong leadership, sense of responsibility and commitment are qualities that are important to our community.
