Veteran Education Benefits

The determination of eligibility for veteran educational benefits rests with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The Veterans Certifying Official helps veterans and other eligible students to access their benefits by certifying their enrollment each semester.

    • Chapter 30 is an educational program for individuals initially entering active duty on or after July 01, 1985 and for certain individuals on active duty before July 01, 1985. Certain other veterans may be eligible under other categories if they were voluntarily or involuntarily separated from the service as a result of a reduction in personnel.
