Veterans Course Details


Outward Bound Veterans courses are open to active duty servicemembers and veterans of all conflicts who have deployed or have been stationed overseas as a part of their service.



Priority will be given to veterans and active duty servicemembers who have not participated on an Outward Bound Veterans course in the past or who have since re-deployed. If you have previously attended an Outward Bound Veterans course, and have not since been redeployed, you will be placed on standby status.




Based on your response, you may not be eligible for an Outward Bound for Veterans course. However, special cases may apply depending on your experience in the military. Please contact one of our Admissions Advisors at 866-467-7651 to discuss course options.

With the generous gifts of donors, courses are offered at low cost to veterans and active duty service members. This includes tuition and travel required to and from the course start location. Due to the expense of planning, staffing and provisioning crews, Outward Bound cannot recover expenses in the event of short-notice cancellations, therefore we require a $50 commitment fee at the time of enrollment. There are no additional penalties or cancellation fees in the event an applicant receives orders to deploy and cannot attend course. Applicants will be charged a $250 cancellation fee if they cancel less than 30 days before the course start date for reasons other than deployment. If Outward Bound has already purchased travel for the course, applicants will also be charged the total cost of travel.
Within two to three business days of submitting this application, you will receive a registration email from your Outward Bound course advisor. This email will include additional paperwork you'll be required to complete, to hold your spot on the course. Your ability to participate on course is contingent upon receiving accurate and complete paperwork within the timelines provided. Please contact your Outward Bound course advisor if you will need additional time to complete your required paperwork.
