Standards of Progress for Receipt of Veteran’s Benefits
The Department of Veterans Affairs' regulations require that a student receiving VA Educational Benefits select an approved degree program and make satisfactory progress toward the completion of that program or risk the possible suspension of benefits. Veterans must maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress according to the policies of the University of the Incarnate Word. When a student fails to maintain prescribed standards of progress, we will notify the Department of Veterans Affairs and they may discontinue benefit payments. The Department of Veterans Affairs will also be notified of students who have been placed on suspension or who have graduated from their degree program.
