The VA ruling is based on two
provisions of the agency's basic
regulations on the cutoff date.
One provision is that a veteran
must be in training on the cutoff
date. except for reasons beyond
his control such as summer vaca-
tions. The other provision states
that a veteran may progress from
a basic or preparatory phase to an
advanced phase of course, after
the cutoff date.
A veteran who completes under
graduate studies and applies in
time for graduate work is consid-
cred to have met both thesesprovi-
sions, VA said.
The July 25 cutoff date applies
to World War II veterans dis
charged before July 25, 1947.
Those discharged after the 1947
date have four years from their
discharge date in which to start CT
Bill courses.
