Financial Aid for Veterans
The Veterans Education Benefits Office was established to help veterans and their eligible dependents apply for and receive Veterans Administration educational benefits, VA work study, veterans counseling, and other supportive services.
You are encouraged to contact the Veterans Certifying Official located next to the Financial Aid Office in the Student Center for assistance.
IMPORTANT: Please check your Student Email and Student Self Service to see if you still have requirements that need to be turned in to complete your FAFSA. If you have forms to drop off, there is a drop box in front of the Veterans Education Benefits Office window.
