Veterans Certification Request
Students planning to use their Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) or Department of Defense (DoD) educational benefits are required to submit a Veterans Certification Request Form (VCRF) each semester. The VCRF is located in the My Vol State portal under Student Forms and is to be completed after you are fully registered in your courses (submission of the VCRF does not register a student in their courses).
Please note, students who have not submitted a VCRF prior to the start of the term may be purged from courses due to non-payment and/or may result in delayed payments of their benefits.
Any changes in enrollment must be reported to our office immediately, including changes in credits, course delivery method, withdrawals, incomplete grades, and change of major. We are required to report these changes to the VA.
Verification of Enrollment to VA
