If you have never applied for VA education benefits, you must first determine your eligibility for VA education benefits by contacting your nearest U.S. Veterans Assistance Center or VA regional office.

For all of these programs, service members must first complete VA Form 22-1990, Application for Education Benefits, and send to the nearest VA office.
