As part of the public University of California system, Berkeley Haas is one of the few top business schools that enables veteran students in its Executive MBA program to take the greatest advantage of Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits.

Financing for Veteran Executive MBA Students

Active and former U.S. service members and their dependents who qualify for Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits can use educational benefits to pay for the MBA for Executives Program, excluding required hotel lodging expenses.

Additionally, UC Berkeley Haas is proud to offer U.S. military service members (active duty and veterans) an application fee waiver:

  • You will apply for a fee waiver within the application. Requests for a fee waiver must be received at least three (3) business days prior to the application deadline for which you are applying.

Just the other day, myself and two other vets were walking back from class, and we said we honestly can't believe we have this opportunity with the GI Bill."
