If you have received Chapter 1607 benefits at another college or university, you will need to provide:
- Complete and submit VA Form 22-1995, Request for Change of Program or Place of Training through va.gov. Provide Certificate of Eligibility when it arrives
- JMU Request for Veterans Educational Benefits form
- JMU Student Agreement Form
- DD214 Member 4 Copy
- Institution of Higher Learning (IHL) transcript (if you've taken classes at another college)
- Request a copy of your JST (Joint Services Transcript) and your DD-214 for credit evaluation
Important:
- In order for a course to be included in an enrollment to VA, it must meet major, minor, general education, allowed elective, or degree requirements for graduation, or an approved certificate or teacher licensure program to qualify. All majors (including tracks and concentrations) and minors must be declared on your transcript.
- The JMU Request for Veterans Educational Benefits form is required every semester benefits are requested. After your 1st semester using your VA Benefits at JMU, the JMU form will be emailed to you after registration for the upcoming semester. It will require your major advisor to initial and sign for any course needed for your major. No approval is needed for courses outside your major (general education, degree, minors, preps, etc)
