Veterans Statement of Understanding Agreement
And Acceptance of Responsibilities
FOR ALL CHAPTERS:
I agree to comply with, and accept responsibility for compliance with, all laws and regulations controlling eligibility for and
receipt of veterans education benefits, and I further agree to indemnify and hold harmless TTU against any liability which
may be determined against it by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs as a result of my failure to comply with all laws
and regulations concerning eligibility for and receipt of veterans benefits, and to pay to TTU all costs of collection,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, which are incurred in the recovery from me of any funds received from the U.S.
Department of Veteran Affairs which I was not entitled to receive under said laws and regulations.
I understand if I make any course adjustments to my enrollment that I must notify the TTU Office of Military and Veterans
Affairs within five (5) business days. I acknowledge that this can impact my Veterans Education Benefits.
I understand that if I do not complete all my courses or receive a punitive grade that I may be charged an overpayment by
the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. The overpayment may include tuition, fees, and any other payments made on
my behalf by VA. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs determines the amount of the overpayment, not TTU. If I have
an existing overpayment with VA, my future benefit payments (including tuition and fees) may be withheld by VA until my
overpayment is repaid in full.
I understand that the TTU Office of Military and Veterans Affairs will utilize my TTU e-mail as the official method of
communication regarding reminders, paperwork, enrollment certification, courses, etc. It is my responsibility to check my
TTU e-mail account regularly.
I understand that the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs requires me to maintain proper attendance in all courses for
which I receive VA Education Benefits for.
I understand I am not entitled to receive benefits for enrollment in courses which I have previously taken and passed, or
for courses which are not required in the degree I am seeking.
I promise to submit a copy of my Certificate of Eligibility or Award Letter from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to
the TTU Office of Military and Veterans Affairs Official within five (5) business days of receiving it from VA
FOR CHAPTERS 30 and 1606:
I acknowledge that once my claim has been processed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, I must verify my
enrollment at the end of every month during the enrollment period with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
