Will Excelsior College allow me to take classes while waiting for the Post-9/11 payment from the VA?

Yes, payments for courses and fees will be waived based on the percentage of your Post-9/11 GI Bill® eligibility while you take classes. The Department of Veterans Affairs will send payment directly to Excelsior College. Please be sure you fax a copy of your Certificate of Eligibility statement to 518-464-8777 or email vafa@excelsior.edu. If you are waiting for your Certificate of Eligibility, then you can submit your unofficial DD 214 to get started.
