Veterans of US Armed Forces and their dependents who are entitled to benefits under government regulations are responsible for notifying the Registrar of required forms to be supplied. Students receiving assistance from the Veterans Administration (VA) are subject to the following regulations:
- Federal regulations stipulate that in order for eligible students to receive veterans’ benefits they must pursue degree programs.
- Students eligible for VA educational allowance who do not increase their grade-point average to that required at the end of the first probationary period are terminated for VA payment purposes. At CIM, therefore, such a student may not remain on probation for more than one semester.
- Courses from which a student has withdrawn (except during the official drop/add period) are included as 0 (zero) credit earned when determining the cumulative grade-point average for VA payment purposes, unless that withdrawal is due to extenuating circumstances.
