Are you waiting for your VA Education Benefits?

The Department of Veterans Affairs has made funds available for Veteran students who are still awaiting their education benefit claim to be processed. Eligible veterans can receive up to a $3000 advance, which will be recouped from future benefit payments. If you are a student who applied for one of VA’s education programs and have not yet received your monthly benefit payment for the Fall 2009 term, you can request a one-time advance payment at your local VA Regional Office or through VA’s website, www.va.gov.


Important information about tuition waivers for Veterans and for eligible Veteran dependents

VETERANS' TUITION WAIVERS

  • 50% discount of tuition for eligible veterans or national guard members

  • 10% discount of tuition for other military or naval veterans

 Eligibility, for both waivers, requires that a student have Washington domiciliary and that their discharge was Honorable.  Students need to provide a copy of their DD214, page 4, to the VSO so that we can verify an Honorable discharge, and also verify that the DD214 reflects the award of applicable campaign medal service.

 Veteran Dependents 100% Tuition Waiver
