VA Financial Assistance Resources

ICOHS College is committed to serving our veterans. Our VA School Certifying Official (SCO) will work closely with you to help you understand what VA financial assistance may be available to you!

How do I apply for VA Financial Assistance?

Benefit coverage varies from full to partial tuition assistance. Assistance may be available for books, fees and housing allowances. Veterans may be eligible to go to school full time and receive full time living expenses through the Department of Veteran Affairs. 

Your education benefits are a result of the GI Bill®. You may also check the Definitive Guide to GI Bill Benefits and Eligibility.
