BCTC is approved for the enrollment of veterans and/or dependent /spouse of a veteran to receive Veterans Educational Assistance Allowances.

BCTC does not have a Veteran Representative or Veteran Office on site. The student should direct all questions concerning VA benefits to the Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA) at 1-888-442-4551.

VA regulations may change from time to time, so it is important that the student maintain regular contact with the DVA.  Failure to report changes in student status may result in the individual's being held liable by the VA for any overpayment.  It is imperative that the student read and closely follow the guidelines adapted from VA regulations found online at http://www.gibill.va.gov/.
