We appreciate our veterans’ sacrifice and service to our country and are proud to serve them!

Meridian College is approved for participation in various funding programs offered through the State Approving Agency for Veterans’ Training.

The educational assistance program administered by the Department of Veterans Administration (DVA), under which a potentially eligible veteran and/or service person may be entitled, is largely dependent on when the individual served on active duty. The DVA administers 11 educational assistance programs, and the basic eligibility criteria may vary from one to another. Generally, only the DVA can determine an applicant’s eligibility for educational assistance. In some instances, the DVA will rely on the military to make the eligibility determination. It is most important to identify under what program a student may qualify, as the types of benefits payable will vary as well as the types of courses or programs of education that may be certified to the DVA.
