Cochise College | Admissions | Financial Aid | Veteran's Affairs
The Arizona Department of Veterans’ Services has approved Cochise College to offer veteran education benefits to qualifying veterans. The Veterans' Assistance Office will be glad to assist you in filing for veterans’ educational benefits.
Whether a student is eligible to receive education benefits is based on approval or denial of the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA), after the student submits an application to the DVA. The staff members of Veterans’ Affairs are Cochise College employees. We cannot counsel veterans on their benefits. We can assist veteran students with applying for veterans’ educational benefits. Our job is to certify a veteran’s enrollment to the DVA so the veteran can receive his or her educational benefits.
Some classes are not eligible for education benefits. Remedial classes, those under the 100 level such as MAT 073, are only eligible for benefits when taken as a traditional, face-to-face class. No remedial classes being taken online are eligible for veteran's educational benefits.
