What is the end date for the GWOT Ribbon?

Other soliders have been saying that new soliders won't receive the GWOT. Which I understand why, but I am unable to find any publication about a stop date for my soliders recently out of AIT.

There is a GWOT Expeditionary Medal and a GWOT Service Medal. The first has specific dates of applicability. The second is still being awarded.

If you dig into the Awards regulation, you can find the requirements and make a huge impact on your Soldiers morale by helping them get one of their first medals.

Anytime somebody makes a random claim just ask for confirmation. There will always be barracks lawyers making crazy proclamations. Just ask for proof because if there isn't proof it is a rumor at best . If it is BS or the person made it up it will buff itself out.
