I Haven't Received Any Payments from the VA for the Current Semester

Contact the VA at 855-225-1159 for any questions related to payments

Does My Cal Vet Waiver Cover Campus Fees, Meal Plan, or Housing?

No. The Cal Vet Waiver only covers the state tuition fee charged during Fall and Spring semester. It is your responsibility to pay all required extended education fees, campus fees, housing and meal plan charges on your student account.

I Will Be Receiving Additional Scholarships. How Does This Affect My Chapter 33 or Chapter 31 Benefits?

The VA is the "last-payer" when it comes to tuition and fee charges. This means that if you are the recipient of a "tuition-specific" scholarship, the scholarship must be applied to your account FIRST and the remaining balance will be covered by the VA.

Are There Any Degree Programs That Do NOT Accept the Cal Vet Waiver?

Please contact your academic department to see if your classes are offered State side.

Can I Use My Cal Vet Waiver for Winter or Summer Terms?

Most Summer and Winter courses are offered through Extended University, which does not charge state tuition. The Cal Vet Waiver only pays state side classes, which are most courses offered during the fall and spring semester. Please contact your academic department to verify if your summer or winter courses are offered through either extended or state side.

What Happens If I Receive A "W" Or "NC" Grade?

You may owe the VA repayment if it affects your enrollment status. For example: The W or NC changes your enrollment from full-time to three quarter time.
