Midwestern University is approved by the Arizona State Approving Agency to certify enrollment for veteran education benefits for eligible programs. Students who receive veteran education benefits are required to provide official military transcripts to the Office of the Registrar when requesting certification for those benefits.  Midwestern University reviews all prior education and training for VA benefit recipients. Midwestern University does not participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program.

  • Impose any penalty or late fee;
  • Deny the student access to classes, libraries, or other institutional facilities, or
  • Require the student secure alternative or additional funding up to the amounts covered by Chapter 31 or 33.

To qualify for this provision, students may be required to submit to the Office of the Registrar no later than the first day of class:

  1. A Certificate of Eligibility (COE) for entitlement to educational assistance under chapter 31 or 33;
