apply for benefits at this school. What should

our office to make an appointment. There are
several items that
are required to initiate your benefits. A VA
representative will contact you with further
information and instructions.
Q: I am adding/dropping classes and this will
change my enrollment status that I filled out
on the Veteran's Certification form. What should
I do?
A: Changing status means to go from full to
1/2 time, 3/4 to full time, or any other such
combination (full time is 12 or more units,
3/4 time is 9-11 units, 1/2 is 6-8 units). If
you dropped from 16 to 12 units, which is still
at full time, you do not need to do anything.
If you added or dropped units that place you
in a status other than you reported, you must
report this change to our office by filling
out a new certification form and indicating
"Change of Status".

fill out?
A: Fill out a "Request

form. If you are a veteran or a reservist, fill
out VA form 22-1995.
If you are a dependent of a veteran fill out
VA form 22-5495.
