Educational benefits are available to students who are currently in, or are veterans of, the Armed Forces. Many different programs are available, depending on the students' Armed Forces status. Federal law requires that we take into consideration any benefits you receive when we award your financial aid. If you receive any benefit from the Armed Forces (GI Bill, Veterans tuition reimbursement, National Guard tuition reimbursement, etc.) you must let us know before your financial aid can be processed. To report these benefits, please obtain and return the benefit form for 2008-2009. This must be returned before any other aid can be disbursed to your account. These payments may affect your financial aid. We will review your file and revise your award if necessary.
