    (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, beginning on August 1, 2019, a State approving agency, or the Secretary when acting in the role of the State approving agency, shall disapprove a course of education provided by an educational institution that has in effect a policy that is inconsistent with any of the following:

    (i) The date on which the Secretary provides payment for such a course of education to such an institution.

    (ii) The date that is 90 days after the date on which the educational institution certifies for tuition and fees following receipt from the student such certificate of eligibility.

    (B) A policy that ensures that the educational institution will not impose any penalty, including the assessment of late fees, the denial of access to classes, libraries, or other institutional facilities, or the requirement that a covered individual borrows additional funds, on any covered individual because of the individual’s inability to meet his or her financial obligations to the institution due to the delayed disbursement of a payment to be provided by the Secretary under chapter 31 or 33 of this title.

    (2) For purposes of this subsection, a covered individual is any individual who is entitled to educational assistance under chapter 31 or 33 of this title.

    Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and Navy or Air Force.

  • Active Duty Veterans

    Eligibility for education benefits via the Department of Veterans Affairs may provide financial support during your collegiate experience. The Post-9/11 GI Bill® could, potentially, cover educational and housing expenses for individuals with an Honorable Discharge, at least 90 days service post-September 10, 2001 or those discharged with a service-connected disability after 30 days.

  • Spouse or child of a service member?

    If you are the spouse/child of a service member, serving on Title 10 orders, you may be eligible for financial assistance from the Department of Defense, for educational expenses.

    If you are the spouse/child of a service member, you may be eligible to transfer the service member’s benefits to you. Transfer of benefits will need to be done via the VA through the service member.

  • VA Education Benefits for Survivors or Dependents
  • Currently serving?

    You may be eligible for educational funding through the Department of Defense Tuition Assistance program. This is a benefit that will need to process through your chain of command not via The University of Tulsa.

  • Veteran Readiness and Employment (Chapter 31 benefits)

    Veteran Readiness and Employment (Ch. 31), previously Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment, is a program that assists with exploration of employment options and addresses training needs for those with service-connected disabilities that limit the ability to or completely prevents you from working.

    In some cases, family members may also qualify for certain benefits via this program.
