Veterans Benefits -- Chap 30, 31, 32, 35, 106

Q: I am a new/transfer student; I have/haven't received VA benefits before and would like to apply for benefits at this school. What should I do?

A: Call or e-mail our office to make an appointment. There are several items that are required to initiate your benefits. A VA representative will contact you with further information and instructions.

Q: I am adding/dropping classes and this will change my enrollment status that I filled out on the Veteran's Certification form. What should I do?

A: Changing status means to go from full to 1/2 time, 3/4 to full time, or any other such combination (full time is 12 or more units, 3/4 time is 9-11 units, 1/2 is 6-8 units). If you dropped from 16 to 12 units, which is still at full time, you do not need to do anything. If you added or dropped units that place you in a status other than you reported, you must report this change to our office by filling out a new certification form and indicating "Change of Status".

Q: I am changing my major. What do I need to fill out?

A: Fill out a "Request for Change of Program or Place of Training" form. If you are a veteran or a reservist, fill out VA form 22-1995. If you are a dependent of a veteran fill out VA form 22-5495.
