Military and Veteran Benefits
Veteran Student Account Support
ÃÛѨÊÓƵ is authorized by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to certify students who qualify for the Montgomery GI Bill® (Active Duty/Selected Reserves), Survivors’ and Dependents’ Educational Assistance Program, Reserve Education Assistance Program, as well as those who qualify for the Post-9/11 GI Bill®, Yellow Ribbon and Vocational Rehabilitation.
ÃÛѨÊÓƵ gives credit for prior learning for a variety of experiences: on the job training, non-credit workshops, travel, personal interests, life experience, and volunteer responsibilities, as well as for training completed through military service.
