VA Educational Benefits Requirements
Veterans and eligible recipients enrolling in approved courses must:
- Pursue the exact curriculum for your program listed in the VGCC catalog.
- Maintain satisfactory academic progress, attendance and conduct for continuing eligibility of payments. Student’s progress will be evaluated at the end of each term to determine student’s eligibility status.
- To maintain Veteran Educational Assistance, veterans and eligible recipients must be enrolled at least:
- Full Time: 12 or more credit hour
- 3/4 Time: 9-11 credit hours
- 1/2 Time: 6-8 credit hours
**Summer term is considered an accelerated term; therefore, the enrollment status is calculated by the Department of Veterans Affairs, which is generally 8 credit hours. Veterans and eligible recipients, once dropped or withdrawn from class(es), normally are not eligible for VA education assistance for that entire term.
