With certain exceptions, PCC courses are approved for the training of veterans and eligible dependents. If you plan to use VA benefits, contact the Office of Veterans’ Affairs (located in the Admissions & Records Office) immediately after deciding to attend PCC. You can expect a six- to eight-week VA processing time for your application.

You are responsible for tuition, fees, and books, whether or not your VA benefit payments have started. If you request Advance Pay, you must enroll in classes before the Cashier will release the Advance Pay. It is your responsibility to notify the Office of Veterans’ Affairs of any address and/or enrollment changes such as course adds and drops, change of major, other schools attended, and any other information related to your academic standing.

Veterans' Attendance and Satisfactory Progress
If you do not attend regularly or make satisfactory, systematic progress toward an educational objective, you will have to repay the VA. If you are placed on academic suspension, the VA will discontinue your benefits for the duration of the suspension.
