In addition to all other institutional policies
and regulations, students who receive education benefits
from the Veterans’ Administration must comply
with the policies of the Veterans’ Administration
and the State Approving Agency for the training and
education of students receiving VA Education Benefits.
These policies include the following requirements:
- You cannot be certified for receipt of your VA
Education Benefits until you have selected the program
of study you intend to pursue, met all admissions
requirements, and all credentials required by the
Admissions Office are received and evaluated. You
must be admitted as a fully matriculated student.
- Should you change your major after the initial
evaluation is completed, you are responsible for
insuring that a timely and accurate departmental
evaluation of your new program of study is completed.
This requires completion of “change of major”
forms.
- You cannot be paid for a failing grade in a pass/fail
course, courses previously passed, courses for which
transfer credit has been granted, Co-Op courses,
or Tested Out courses.
- It is your responsibility to immediately inform
the Veterans Affairs Office of any changes in your
enrollment (such as, dropped or added classes, or
withdrawal from school). If there is any unreported
change in your enrollment, you may not be entitled
to the full amount of your educational benefits.
- It is your responsibility to inform the Veterans
Services Office each semester or term of your intent
to utilize your education benefits. You must turn
in a Request for Certification form and a copy of
your data schedule. Notification of not returning
to Methodist University is also appreciated.
- You may not receive benefits for excessive electives.
Only the elective hours required for degree completion
as stated in the University
Catalogue for your curriculum may be certified
for benefits.
- You must make satisfactory
academic progress toward completion of your
degree or educational objective as stated in the
university catalogue. Unsatisfactory academic progress
may result in termination of your educational benefits.
