Important Steps

The following reminders are provided for both new and returning students who intend to receive VA educational benefits while enrolled at UTEP.

1. Registration for UTEP classes does not automatically certify you for VA benefits.  To be certified, you will need to go to the VA Office and complete the required forms.

2. An Undergraduate Course Credit Verification form must be submitted to the VA Office if you have completed fewer than 60 semester hours.
