Veterans must attend scheduled classes and continue to show satisfactory progress. Benefit payments will not be made for courses from which the student does not continue to attend. Receiving veteran benefits does not prevent a student from applying or receiving other forms of financial aid. The Workforce Investment Act - the purpose of this act is to prepare economically disadvantaged youth and unskilled adults, or persons facing serious barriers to employment, with the training necessary for entry into the labor force. Contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.
