You must notify Veterans Services and the Financial Aid Office of changes to your schedule immediately. This is for both adding and/or dropping a class. Failure to do so could slow down your payments and/or will cause repayment issues.
Make sure all of your courses are in your selected program. VA will only pay for courses that are required for graduation.
VA pays from the start date to the end date for your courses. If you are enrolled in a short or accelerated course, your payments may change throughout the semester.
