Welcome

Veterans Education Benefits Students,

Welcome to NC State University and to the Veterans’ Education Office. We serve the approximately 630 veterans and eligible students in the processing of their VA Education Benefits, from the initial application to on-going benefits management. At NC State, we look with pride on our long history of support for veteran/eligible students and our entire military community. Our iconic Memorial Belltower reminds us daily of those who have given the ultimate sacrifice. NC State offers continued on-going military support, reflected throughout our vibrant on-campus military population — veteran students, ROTC, faculty and staff.

NC State partners with leaders in business, industry and government to deliver new ideas, products and services to world markets. Equally important, as a frontrunner in experiential education, NC State helps students develop personal and career-ready skills to put their learning into practice.

Along with the campus military community, we welcome you to NC State. Our office is here to serve you.

Sincerely,
Registration and Records
Veterans’ Education Office

Announcements

Veterans Choice Act

Effective: January 1, 2016: The following is an excerpt from the Veterans Administration’s revised announcement on Section 702 of the “Choice Act” of 2014:

For a public university to be approved for payments of benefits under the Post 9/11 GI Bill or the Montgomery GI Bill – Active Duty, the public institution cannot charge qualifying veterans and dependents tuition and fees in excess of rates for resident students for terms beginning after January 1, 2016.

Under the Choice Act, a “covered individual” meets these qualifications:

• a veteran, dependent of a veteran, or a spouse/child using benefits under the Marine Gunnery Sergeant John David Fry Scholarship
• “lives” in the state in which the institution of higher learning is located, regardless of his/her formal state of residence
• enrolls in the school within three years of the veteran’s discharge from active-duty service, or in the case of the Fry Scholarship, within three years of the service member’s death in the line of duty
