Veteran Benefit Enrollment Form

GI Bill ® is a registered trademark of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). More information about education benefits offered by VA is available at the official U.S. government Web site at .

THIS FORM MUST BE COMPLETED EVERY SEMESTER.

Read and process each section carefully -- an incomplete or incorrect submission will result in delays. All documents submitted to the Office of Financial Aid Services must be signed; all e-communications from Financial Aid Services will be sent to student's official Lewis email account.

YOU MUST NOTIFY OUR OFFICE OF: (a) Any changes in your schedule (b) any changes in your program, or (c) withdrawal, dismissal or activation. By Signing below, you are accepting responsibility for any overpayment resulting from inaccurate or false information. You have the legal responsibility of notifying the ȺpÎÞÂë Financial Aid Office of any changes in status or enrollment. Failure to notify this office of any status changes may result in over/under payment and /or delay in receiving your Department of Veteran Affairs Educational Benefits. Note: VA will correct overpayments by subtracting the amount in question from subsequent checks.

Beginning with terms starting on or after December 17, 2021, if you are using your Post-9/11 GI Bill® benefit at ȺpÎÞÂë, you are required to verify your enrollment at the end of each month to receive your Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA). We want to help you meet this new requirement so you can continue your education without any interruption in benefits. By verifying that you are still enrolled in the same courses or training every month, you help avoid overpayments caused by changes to your training schedule and safeguard your GI Bill entitlement by preventing entitlement charges for training you did not attend. For more information including how to opt in to secure text messaging verification please .

 * By checking this box, I affirm that I have read and understand the monthly verification process as stated above.
