VETERANS EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS

Veterans, some spouses and children of deceased or disabled veterans, and current members of the Selected Reserves may be eligible for educational benefits. In addition, veterans who served during wartime and who are currently Connecticut residents are eligible to have tuition waived for general fund courses. Requirements for receiving and maintaining Veterans’ Benefits:

  1. Complete process for enrollment to QVCC; provide an official academic transcript of all previous college credits that apply to your QVCC program of study.
  2. Provide a copy of your DD-214. National Guard members must apply to their unit for a DD-2384 and those eligible for a Guard waiver must reapply with their units each semester.
  3. Recipients of monthly benefits must submit a Certificate of Eligibility to the Veterans’ Affairs Office.
  4. Recipients of monthly benefits must register with the Veterans’ Affairs Office each semester to continue benefits. They must also verify attendance twice per semester by returning Monthly Certification Forms (MCF).
  5. Recipients of monthly benefits must also notify the Veterans’ Affairs Office of any change of program or change in the number of credits during the semester.

They must also maintain satisfactory academic progress as described in this catalog.

Note that all monthly veterans’ benefits are paid directly to the student after the application and enrollment processes are complete. Veterans receiving monthly benefits are responsible for the cost of tuition, fees, and books. Veterans receiving the Connecticut Tuition Waiver are responsible for the cost of fees and books.
