Financing Your Education with Military-Related Benefits<\/strong><\/h2>\n

We believe that an Â鶹Çø student should have a thorough understanding of what it means to finance his or her education. Â鶹Çø has a\u00a0School Certifying Official<\/a>\u00a0to assist students with obtaining VA education benefits and additional staff members who will help you navigate the financial aid process and payment options for out-of-pocket expenses.<\/p>\n

New and returning students should complete the items on the following checklist. Not every item will be applicable to each student.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Apply for\u00a0Financial Aid<\/a>\u00a0to establish eligibility for grants and loans<\/li>\n
  2. Apply for VA education benefits\u00a0or apply to continue using benefits from another school<\/li>\n
  3. Turn in your Certificate of Eligibility (Chapter 33 benefits only)<\/li>\n
  4. Consider funding sources<\/a> that work in concert with other types of financial aid and benefits\n
