Veterans Benefits

Thanks to all who served
Recipients of veterans’ benefits must submit official transcripts of all postsecondary coursework attempted before they can receive V.A. benefits. They are also urged to submit official transcripts of any educational work completed through the armed services.

Veterans will not be eligible to receive V.A. benefits until all postsecondary transcripts are submitted. For more details, contact the Office of the Registrar located in Student Services, Balsam Center.

The Department of Veterans Affairs provides educational benefits to eligible veterans and to eligible dependents and survivors of certain veterans. Students who believe they are eligible for veterans’ benefits should contact the Registrar's Office to receive an application for benefits and a list of requirements that they must meet.

To find out more information about applying for your VA benefits, please go to http://www.gibill.va.gov/

Are you waiting for your VA Education Benefits?
The Department of Veterans Affairs has made funds available for Veteran students who are still awaiting their education benefit claim to be processed. Eligible veterans can receive up to a $3000 advance, which will be recouped from future benefit payments. If you are a student who applied for one of VA’s education programs and have not yet received your monthly benefit payment for the Fall 2009 term, you can request a one-time advance payment at your local VA Regional Office or through VA’s website, www.va.gov.
