NEW VA EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS FOR POST 9/11 GI-BILL STUDENT!

Beginning on and after December 17, 2021 student who are using their Post-9/11 Gi Bill here at Edmonds will need to verify their Enrollment at the end of each month. Failure to verify for two consecutive months will impact your Monthly Housing Allowance (MAH) and/or kicker payments here at Edmonds and all state colleges. Students, please go to Department of VA Education to sign up for either a text messaging from VA as this will also help with you verifying your enrollment status.

Also, we are now required to certify twice per months to verify your enrollment per quarter per new rules set forth by VA Education. This means we will certify you before the Add drop/ and after the Add drop period of each quarter.

If you have any questions please contact us here in the Veteran Resource Center.
