Benefits other than Financial Aid
Veterans Administration Benefits. Students
who meet the definition of a "veteran" may be eligible
for Veterans Administration (VA) benefits.
Prior to enrolling, veterans should contact the ULV
campus they wish to attend to determine if the
site is VA approved for educational benefits.
Students wishing to receive VA benefits at an
approved site should contact the Registrar or the
local ULV campus director at or before the time of
registration in order to complete the necessary
paperwork.
The Veterans Administration requires all entering
veterans to be formally admitted to the
University before becoming eligible to receive VA
benefits. All prior transcripts and military documents
must be received and evaluated by the
Office of the Registrar prior to the second
semester of attendance. Once veterans have
been admitted and evaluated, they must notify the
certifying official of their program each term or
semester of enrollment.
To maintain eligibility, veterans must successfully
complete all units enrolled. Veterans who fail
to maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress for
two semesters (or three terms) will be disqualified
and will have their benefits terminated. For an
explanation of grading policy, see the Grades section
of this catalog, or contact the Registrar's
Office.
