Enrollment Certification Request

You must complete an Enrollment Certification Request for every semester that you wish to receive your educational benefits. To avoid a delay in receiving pay, requests should be submitted at least 30 days prior to the beginning of the semester.

Processing Time

Normal processing time for the Veterans Administration is eight to ten weeks from the date you complete your pay request at the Veterans Services Office.

Short Term Classes

Classes less than the normal 16 weeks affect your monthly benefit rate. Consult the Veterans Services Office.

Open Entry/Open Exit Classes

These classes do not have confirmed beginning and ending dates. You must complete these courses before applying for benefits.

Tuition Deferments

Students may apply for a tuition deferment at the Veterans Services Office.

Concurrent Enrollment

You are concurrently enrolled when you are attending more than one college.

Parent College: The college from which you intend to graduate.

Supplemental College: A college where you are taking courses, but do not intend to get your degree.

Your Responsibility: Notify each college Veterans Services Office, and let them know if they are the Parent or Supplemental School.
