Welcome

This institution is approved by the North Carolina State Approving Agency for the enrollment of persons eligible for education assistance benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA). Entitled veterans, participants in the Montgomery G.I. Bill contributory program, active duty military in voluntary education programs, drilling National Guard, drilling Reservists, and eligible spouses and offspring who have applied, met all admissions criteria, been fully accepted, and actively matriculated may be certified to the U.S. DVA Regional Office as enrolled and in pursuit of an approved program of Education.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. Vocational Rehabilitation students must buy all required books and supplies through the school bookstore. No reimbursement will be made for items purchased elsewhere.
  9. While attending Methodist University, you are subject to VA Regulations and Institutional Requirements contained in the Methodist University Catalogue.
