Certifying your enrollment
Once your benefits have been approved, you must file a request for certification of your classes. The Department of Veterans Affairs grants education benefits for approved programs only. Click here for a list of UH-Downtown approved programs.
To receive your benefits each semester, you must submit:
- A Request for VA Educational Certification
- A copy of your current class schedule
- Your updated degree plan
- A copy of your paid fee statement
You may request certification for more than one semester at a time. The VA will process requests up to 90 days in advance of a semester.
You MUST also verify your enrollment monthly to receive payments!
This verification can be done either by using the Web Automated Verification of Enrollment (WAVE) application or by using an automated telephone system (IVR) at 1-877-823-2378 and follow the prompts.Taking classes at another university:
If
you plan to graduate from the University of Houston-Downtown, but
would like to enroll in some classes at another college/university,
you must
complete and submit a
Parent Institution Letter Request along with a copy
of your schedule from the other institution to Veterans
Services. (Any courses that you enroll in at another college/university
will be certified by that institution's Certifying Official).
Once your grades are made available, you must submit an official transcript to Veterans Services.
Dropping a class
If you wish to drop any of your classes, change your schedule, or withdraw completely, you are responsible for reporting your status change to Veterans Services. Veterans Services will report your status change to the VA and your benefits will be adjusted accordingly.
