Getting Started at Â鶹´«Ã½ State

Â鶹´«Ã½ State University welcomes veterans who have served and continue to serve our country. US News has ranked Â鶹´«Ã½ State University . Also as a G.I. Job's Military Friendly School, we are ready to support our military families during their transition to student life. We work hard to help you get the education you deserve and plan for the future you want. Let us help you prepare for the next chapter of your life. When you are ready for this all-important step, we are ready for you.

Â鶹´«Ã½ing for Education Benefits

Eligibility for veteran and dependent education benefits is determined by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA). The, Â鶹´«Ã½ State University office of Veterans Affairs will help you complete the application and certify your enrollment to the DVA so you can receive benefits.

Benefit Resources

  • - Post 9/11 GI Billâ„¢

  • - A program for students training in high demand STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) fields.

  • - A scholarship for children and dependents of a veteran who died in the line of duty on or after September 11, 2001

  • - Veteran Readiness & Employment Program

  • - Survivors' and Dependents' Educational Assistance Program (DEA)

  • - Montgomery GI Bill- Selected Reserves (MGIB_SR)

  • - Montgomery GI Bill- Active Duty (MGIB_AD)

  • - Reimbursement for paid tutoring

Eligible veterans, service members, and dependents will need to follow the checklist for the chapter for which they are going to be receiving benefits to ensure timely payment of benefits.

Each semester after registration, students eligible for benefits must complete the certification request form. This is a form specific to Â鶹´«Ã½ State and not a VA form. A student will be certified during a semester only after completing the CRF and turning in any required documentation. Generally, it takes the Office of Veteran & Military Student Success a week to submit a certification to the Department of Veteran Affairs.

Operation Graduation Scholarship

Â鶹´«Ã½ State University offers a renewable fund to aid student veterans with purchasing text books needed to pursue their Â鶹´«Ã½ State degree. Students must buy text books from the Â鶹´«Ã½ State bookstore only. The guidelines and requirements for eligibility of this scholarship can be found on the Â鶹´«Ã½ State Scholarship website.
