Veteran's Assistance

Through the Records Offices, veterans seeking educational benefits are furnished with appropriate forms and given instructions regarding the procedures required to enroll. Upon enrollment, the forms are then certified by the appropriate College Veterans Representative official and copies forwarded to the appropriate Veterans' Administration (VA) Office. Benefits , which are determined by the VA, are calculated based upon the number of credit hours attempted in the veteran's academic program; the courses attempted are closely scrutinized to insure that all classes are required in the degree program in which the veteran is enrolled. Classes that are not required will not be certified. For more information contact Central Records at the District Office at 304.896.7443.

As a recipient of VA educational benefits, students must immediately report any change in credit hour and/or program of study to the Veterans Representative. Furthermore, students must maintain satisfactory academic progress and be in good academic standing each semester. Students are considered to be making satisfactory progress and be in good standing as long as each semester’s grade point average is 2.00 or above.
