VA Educational Benefits

If you have questions about or need help applying for GI Bill®, Federal Tuition Assistance, State Tuition Reimbursement or other benefits, our Veterans and Military Student Services coordinator and certifying official are here to help answer you questions and ensure you find the right benefits for you. For questions about your tuition assistance eligibility and funding amounts, contact your unit or education service officer (ESO).

Once you have applied for your benefits, it is your responsibility to notify the certifying official of your intended benefit use and which classes you would like to use the benefits for. Notification must be done each semester to ensure your benefits are received in a timely manner.
