Step 1: Apply for your Veterans Educational Benefits.

• Apply for your Veterans Education Benefits as soon as possible. Once you have completed your application, you will receive a Certificate of Eligibility. You will also need to request a copy of your DD-214 form from the National Archives.
  
• Submit your Certificate of Eligibility and a copy of your DD-214 form to the Office of Financial Aid.

Step 2:  Determine your student classification.

---

• Each student classification has a unique admissions process.
  

  • Freshman / New Undergraduate Student (You are under 24 years of age and have completed high school.)
    

  • Transfer Student (You are under 24 years of age and have completed some college courses.)
    

  • Graduate Student (You have completed an undergraduate degree program.)

Step 4:  Submit your transcripts.

• Submit your official transcripts for each college or university you have attended. If you have never enrolled in college or you have completed fewer than 12 course credit hours, you must submit an official high school transcript of GED score report.
