Reminders:

VA takes an AVERAGE of 12 weeks to process a claim. So you want to be timely with your request for certification.

It is important to apply for benefits as soon as possible after you register for classes. After registration occurs in the spring for the following Fall semester, you need to request certification for the new academic year by printing and completing a "Request for Certification of Veterans' Benefits (VS CERTF)" form available on the forms link. Please submit this form to the Financial Aid Office, Room 315 North Hall. You can fax, mail, or schedule an appointment with the Certifying Official to drop it off.
