DePaul University will not take any of the four following actions toward any student using U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Post 9/11 G.I.

• Prevent their enrollment;
• Assess a late penalty fee to;
• Require they secure alternative or additional funding;
• Deny their access to any resources (access to classes, libraries, or other institutional facilities) available to other students who have satisfied their tuition and fee bills to the institution.

However, to qualify for this provision, such students may be required to:

• Produce the VA’s Certificate of Eligibility by the first day of class;
• Provide written request to be certified;
• Provide additional information needed to properly certify the enrollment as described in other institutional policies (see our VA School Certifying Official for all requirements)

Due to system automations, a late fee and/or a registration hold may accidentally go onto your account even if the above documents have been provided. Please know that we will be able to easily and quickly resolve a system automated late fee and/or registration hold if you just simply email us at veteransaffairs@depaul.edu

Additional information specific to veteran students is available through the Admission and Aid website as well as the Office of Veterans Affairs website.​
