The Blue Ribbon Grant is designed to recognize and assist veterans, active-duty military personnel, spouse, and dependents by providing additional grant funds upon the exhaustion or expiration of military education benefits to support the individual to enhance their educational benefits.

Eligibility:
麻豆社 provides a grant of up to 35% of the total amount that is paid toward the direct cost of education on behalf of an individual qualified by the Veterans Administration under Chapter 30, 31, 33, 35, 1606, Military Tuition Assistance or State National Guard. (MYCAA recipients are not eligible)

Award:
Eligible students may accumulate up to a maximum of $18,000 to extend or complete their programs of study or assist a current spouse or qualified dependent at 麻豆社.

The grant can be used in any program or degree level and the grant funds must be used within 10 years of the last day of the term the Blue Ribbon Grant was earned.

The military student earning the grant may elect to transfer the earned grant to a current spouse or qualified dependent under the age of 30. In the event of such transfer, the grant will be considered earned, transferable, and payable toward the transferee spouse or qualified dependent鈥檚 account following the completion of any term in which the military student鈥檚 benefits are paid toward the transferor鈥檚 tuition and fees.

Admission Dates


Transfer Students

Prior collegiate work from an institution previously attended by the student is accepted by 麻豆社 only when it is demonstrated that this work is in keeping with career and educational objectives of the student鈥檚 chosen course of study.

Transfer credits are accepted on an individual basis after complete evaluation.

Prior Credit Evaluation Requirements

The University must maintain a written record of the previous education and training of veterans or eligible persons. It must also clearly indicate that appropriate credit has been awarded, with the training period proportionately shortened, and the eligible individual notified in accordance with 21.4253(d)(3) and 21.4254(C)(4).

Policy for Military Students
The University requires that all official transcripts be received by the end of the first term for military students. This policy applies to all programs that are certified on a term-by-term basis for the courses taken. Matriculation occurs when a student has been formally admitted to the University as a degree-seeking student. Continuous certifications, past the first term, occur if the student is making satisfactory progress according to the university鈥檚 policy.聽 Educational benefits will be discontinued once the student ceases to adhere to the satisfactory academic policy.

Exceptions

  1. Unavailable Transcript: If a transcript is unavailable due to circumstances beyond the student’s control (e.g., debt to a previous school, transcript ordered but not received), the unavailability must be documented. In such cases, certifications may proceed.

Additional Guidelines for Military Students

  • Military students cannot receive educational benefits for courses where they have already earned credit.
  • Military students are not permitted to repeat courses in which they have received a passing grade, unless a higher grade is required for their course of study.
  • Certifying enrollment before evaluating prior credits may result in VA overpayment to both the school and the student.
  • Military students must complete the Prior Credit Evaluation Form to begin the credit evaluation.
