Can I use the Hazlewood Act
at St. Edward's?
No, the Hazlewood Act is only applicable to Texas
public universities and colleges.
How do I find out the status
of my payments?
Contact the DVA at 888-GIBill-1 to inquire about
the status of your benefits.
Does the DVA pay for tuition?
All students who receive veteran's education benefits
are responsible for the same tuition policies as other
St. Edward's University students. Tuition policies
and procedures are available in the General Bulletin
of each program under "Cost and Financial Aid".
The DVA will not send money to SEU for a student's
tuition. The money students receive from the DVA is
considered a benefit (Educational Assistance Allowance)
not tuition reimbursement. Money from educational
benefits will be mailed directly to the student or
deposited into the student's bank account electronically.
How much money will I receive?

For more specific information contact the Department
of Veterans Affairs at 888-GIBill-1 (888-442-4551).
When will I receive payment
of benefits?
For specific information contact the Muskogee Regional
Processing Office at 888-GIBill-1. Changes in enrollment
status or address can delay payment.
Will I automatically receive
benefits next semester?
Yes, as long as all your registered courses are on
your degree plan, or you have a written approval
from
your academic
advisor to take an appropriate substitution.
Do I have to report all changes
in my schedule (add/drop)?
No, the VA certifying official runs a daily report
to determine who has added or dropped a class.
I received a Student Verification
Form in the mail, what do I do with it?
Return the Student Verification Form (VA Form 22-8979)
to the Muskogee Regional Processing Office in order
to receive payment. There is a provision on the form
to change or correct enrollment status if it is no
longer valid. Students should also verify their correct
address before signing and returning the form.
You can now do all this via the Automatic
Verification Line at 877-823-2378.
