Are you planning on taking classes next quarter?
If you are planning on taking classes next quarter and respond "Yes" to this brief questionnaire by 11:59 PM, December 14, 2023; we will place a tuition hold on your student account that will prevent you from being dropped from your classes while you are waiting for your VA benefits. Submissions received after this date may cause a delay in your payment to the college using your VA benefits.
Receiving Your VA Benefits
Please review and submit the following online form to our office as a first step to receiving your benefits: Receiving Your VA Benefits: Requirements, Policies, and Procedures.
Post-9/11 GI Bill® students attending IHL facilities who receive Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) and/or kicker payments are required to verify enrollment at the end of each month. This applies to IHL students with terms starting on or after December 17, 2021. Please click here for more information: IHL Process 
Activating Benefits
A representative is available to assist veterans and activate all veterans' educational benefits. A complete description of the educational benefits available to veteran (and their dependents if applicable) can be obtained from the Department of Veterans Affairs website. 
Tuition Assistance (TA) Service members should first talk with their command education officer to establish eligibility. All veterans and active members are encouraged to apply for financial aid. Provide a certified copy of the veteran's DD-214 member 4 to the Veterans Office.
Educational benefits are also available to eligible members of the National Guard and selected reserves. A Notice of Basic Eligibility (or NOBE) needs to be requested from your unit and brought to the Veterans' Resource Center to start the application process.
Important: It is the responsibility of the veteran or dependent receiving benefits to ensure that the veteran's coordinator receives a copy of their class schedule each quarter. Changes in the schedule must also be reported to the coordinator. Failure to do so may result in an overpayment, which must be repaid to the government.

Military Tuition Assistance Refund Schedule
The college will return unearned Military Tuition Assistance funds on a proportional basis through the 60 percent completion point of the enrollment period for which the funds were provided. Unearned funds are calculated based on the date a student stops attending.
For instance, when a service member stops attending due to a military service obligation, the College will work with the affected service member to identify solutions that will not result in student debt for the returned portion.
The college will return unearned Military Tuition Assistance funds back to the Department of Defense (DOD), not to the student when, prior to completing greater than 60% of the enrollment period, the student stops attending regardless of the reason for drop/withdrawal. The college will return funds based on the following schedule:
100% refund if the student drops/withdraws before completing 10% of the term
50% refund if the student drops/withdraws after completing 10% but less than 20% of the term
10% refund if the student drops/withdraws after completing 20% but less than 60% of the term
Exceptions to this general refund policy may be granted for medical reasons, or if the student is called to military service. Students should submit a Petition for Refunds and Policy Exceptions.
Veterans Readmission Process
Veteran students who are required to leave their academic studies due to active military service do not need to reapply to the College should they return within 12 months of their last quarter of attendance. The veteran student should, if possible, contact their instructor(s) to request a withdrawal, grade, or an incomplete. If unable to reach the instructor(s), Enrollment Services will in turn notify the instructor(s).
When returning to the College after more than 12 months, the veteran student should re-apply online to update their ctcLink account. At this point, the veteran student should work with an academic adviser to help in attaining their program requirements. If gone for more than one year, special considerations will be made to assist the veteran student to graduate with their selected program.
