Applying for Benefits





Continuing Your Benefits

(NOTE: Students attending distance learning sites outside Virginia will have your benefits certified by your site director.)

  • As long as you remain continuously registered we will submit a 1999 form to the VA on your behalf.
  • If you have a break in your enrollment you must submit a Veterans Clearance Form to restart your benefits.
  • We will track all changes to your schedule, so you do NOT have to contact us if you add or drop a course.
  • If you are an Active Duty military member, or MEM Ashore student, please complete a Veterans Clearance Form each semester after you register for classes.
