Receiving Veterans Benefits at AUC

After you have initiated your Veterans Benefits at AUC, a school certifying official will contact you at the beginning of each term. Once your enrollment has already been certified for a term in the current VA year, you will not be automatically certified for another term, unless you request otherwise. You will receive an automatic electronic notification from the VA after your enrollment has been certified. Payment of benefit can take up to two to four weeks after it is certified. Eligibility and payment amounts are determined by the VA and not by AUC. Please visit the VA’s Rate Tables for the various benefit programs.
