Enrollment Policies/Procedures
Students are entitled to receive educational benefits only if pursuing an approved program of courses leading to a degree or vocational objective. Random selection of classes for Veterans Administration (VA) payment is prohibited. Coursework must be part of an approved program of study as reported to the VA.
Remedial/Developmental classes can be certified for VA benefits if a college program advisor documents that the college-accepted testing method reveals that secondary level training is needed for the student to reach a certain mastery level necessary for pursuit of a postsecondary program of education. If the student entered 9th grade in a Florida public school in the 2003-2004 school year, or any year thereafter, and earned a Florida standard high school diploma, or a student is serving as an active duty member of any branch of the United States Armed Services, he/she is not required to take the common placement test, nor is he/she required to enroll in Remedial/Developmental classes. However, if a student wishes to take the placement exam even if they are exempt and test into a Remedial/Developmental course, then the VA will cover the student to take the required course.
The Military and Veterans Service Center cannot certify a VA educational benefit user to take an online Remedial/Developmental course. VA students who complete a developmental class before the end of the term will have their benefits reduced accordingly. The instructor will notify the Military and Veterans Service Center by memorandum of the date the course was completed.
