VA/GI Bill® Educational Benefits

---

Review VA Benefits, complete the VA Declaration of Intent and return to OSA with supporting documentation.

All new and continuing veteran and dependent students who are eligible for and intending to use educational benefits are REQUIRED to print, fill out, and submit the VA Enrollment Certification form each semester after you have enrolled for classes.

Upon receipt of your Enrollment Certification form, the School of Medicine’s SCO (School Certifying Official) will certify your enrollment to the VA using the Veterans Enrollment Management system. Once enrollment is certified, your tuition is paid directly to Student Accounting. In accordance with federal regulations, GI Bill® students should not be imposed a late fee, and therefore, a list of GI Bill® students is reported to Student Accounting to prevent penalty.
