The Office of the Registrar will assist veteran students in applying for federal educational benefits by acting as a liaison to the Veteran's Administration (VA). If you are a veteran and you enroll either full or part-time in an approved program of study, you are eligible to receive educational assistance.
Veteran Benefits may include payments for books, courses, tutoring and a housing allowance. Veterans with disabilities may be entitled to additional benefits. In some circumstances, educational benefit may be transferred to a dependent. A veteran's eligibility is established by the Veteran's Administration.
