Chapter 31
Vocational Rehabilitation Veterans may be eligible for Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment benefits if they have a service-connected disability or disabilities rated by the VA at 10 percent or greater. For more information, go to www.va.gov and click on Vocational Rehab & Employment Services, or call the VA at 1-800-827-1000 and request an application (VA Form 22-1990). If you are authorized Vocational Rehabilitation, the VA will notify LSU. Although tuition and fees are paid in full, students are responsible for submitting fee bills, or confirming registration via PAWS, prior to the payment deadline Transfer students, or LSU Eunice students who have changed their degree plan after already receiving benefits under chapter 31, must complete the VA form 22-1995 (Request for Change of Program or Place of Training). Click here for a list of approved programs at LSU Eunice. All VA students must also bring or send a copy of their current schedule to the VA Office in rm. 112 in the Acadian Center. This must be done each semester, as soon as they schedule classes. The VA office at LSU Eunice cannot certify students to receive payments from the VA until a current schedule is received. |
