Attention all VA and Hazlewood students
The priority deadline for summer has expired and the priority deadline for fall 2012 (July 9, 2012) is fast approaching!
Students using VA education benefits and the Hazlewood Exemption are encouraged to submit their certification forms as soon as possible in order avoid payment delays and/or issues. Requests for VA Certification and Hazlewood Exemption applications can be submitted via e-mail at va@ct.tamus.edu , by fax to (254) 519-5420, or in person at the Veterans’ Affairs Center.

The Veterans Affairs Center is relocating to the first completed building of the new Texas A&M University – Central Texas Campus. On May 18, the TAMUCT VA Center will close its doors at our Clear Creek Location and set up residence on the 2nd floor of the Founder’s Hall, Room 221, at 1001 Leadership Place, Killeen 76549. Telephone numbers and fax number will not change.
Reminder: You will notice a change in the Fall 2012 course prefixes for courses at Texas A&M University: Central Texas. Courses offered through TAMUCT will now end with the letter “K” (i.e. ACCK – Accounting, ECOK – Economics). You will not need to submit a course substitution form in order to receive VA payment for those courses with the “K” designation that are required for your degree. Get more information on the K courses.

If you served in the Army National Guard or Air National Guard and are currently receiving less than 100% benefits under Chapter 33 (Post 9/11 G.I. Bill), you need to read this.
Post-9/11 GI Bill
The Post-9/11 GI Bill authorizes the most extensive educational assistance opportunity since the passage of the original GI Bill in 1944. The maximum benefit allows every eligible veteran, service member, Reservist, and National Guard member an opportunity to receive an in-state, undergraduate education at a public institution at no cost. For more information about the Post-9/11 GI Bill please visit http://www.gibill.va.gov/.
