We are honored that you’ve chosen to continue your education here at Carson-Newman大学! Updating and receiving your benefits is a simple process. If you have used a portion of your VA educational benefits at another school, please follow the guidelines below to transfer your remaining benefits to Carson-Newman. If you need assistance at any point in the process, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
第一步:更新你的福利
If you have used your veterans benefits at another college or university, you will need to update your application to let the VA know that you will be using your remaining benefits at a different school. The process is relatively simple and should only take about 15-20 minutes. We recommend that you have any address changes and your bank information available at this time. You do not have to upload a DD-214 or any documents.
Please click on the button below to update your benefits at the US Department of Veterans Affairs website:
In the section where the application asks for the school’s name and address, 请使用以下信息:
Carson-Newman大学
罗素大道1646号
杰斐逊城，田纳西州37760
完成申请后, please save or print out the confirmation page with your name and confirmation and email a copy to militaryservices@customtoursandevents.com.
Your actual 资格证书(COE) will take another four weeks or more to arrive in the mail.
You DO NOT have to wait to receive you Certificate of Eligibility before applying for admission to Carson-Newman大学, 与指导老师交谈, 或者选择你的课程.
STEP 2: Complete the C-N军人/退伍军人教育援助表格

第三步:向我们提交文件
In approximately 30 days after applying to the VA, you should receive an updated 资格证书(COE) 在普通邮件中. 退伍军人事务部也可能通过电子邮件向您发送一份副本.

In the meantime, please also submit your most recent DD-214 (disregard if you are still serving on active duty).
If you are a member of the National Guard or Reserve, 我们还需要一份你的 基本资格通知书(NOBE)还有一份你的 征募爱发牢骚的人 (如适用). Check with your Unit Administrator to receive copies of these documents.
Once we have a copy of your Certificate of Eligibility and your DD-214, our office will not need anything else from you until you have registered for classes.

第四步:一旦你注册了课程
每学期, after you register for classes, you must complete the 申请证书表格 in order for your VA education benefits to be processed. You will receive a confirmation e-mail after submission. It is important to submit this request in a timely manner to ensure that your benefits are not delayed. Registration at Carson-Newman takes place several weeks prior to the upcoming semester for which you are registering. Make it a practice to fill out the 申请证书表格 at the same time you register for the next semester.
一旦收到此表格, your certifying official here at Carson-Newman will review your eligibility and ensure that the classes you’ve chosen are within VA guidelines. Please note that VA educational benefits will only cover courses required for your degree program.
你必须立即报告, all changes to your enrollment to the Director of 军事和退伍军人服务 via email. 这些变化包括学分的变化, 当然撤军, 不完整的成绩, 以及专业和地址的变化. 我们需要向VA报告这些变化.
第五步:去上课
We strongly recommend that you make every effort to not miss class. Please note that a failure for non-attendance must be reported to the VA and will result in a debt on your student account. If you feel as though you may be at risk to fail a course for academic reasons, please contact our office so that we may assist with resources here on campus.
Always notify the Office of 军事和退伍军人服务 if you make any changes to your schedule or degree program, 因为我们必须向退伍军人管理局报告.
