Post 9/11 GI Bill (Chapter 33) pay rates

  • Chapter 33 students will be responsible for making all payments to the school for housing fees and meal plans, as the VA will send their funding directly to the account listed when the VA application is completed. The VA will send tuition & fees directly to the school (if your benefit % is lower than 100, the student is responsible for paying the remaining amount owed directly to the school).
    • Be advised, if your benefits percentage is lower than 100% the deferment on file will be until the end of the term. Payment will be due at the end of the term. It will be your responsibility to cover the remaining balance and check your TransAct under MyUWF. If you would like your deferment removed, so as to pay your remaining balance, contact MVRC at 850-474-2550 or emails us at mvrc@uwf.edu .

titleMonthly Enrollment Verification

Monthly Enrollment Verification

All Chapter 33 students are required to verify their enrollment with the VA at the end of each month to continue receiving your Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA).  This can be done by calling GI Bill Customer Service monthly via email or text.  The VA strongly recommends using text messaging as a simple, quick, and safe option for verifying enrollment to receive your MHA uninterrupted.  When your enrollment is processed, you will receive the following text message, "Post 9/11 GI Bill housing and kicker payments now require monthly enrollment verification.  Would you like to submit yours via text?  Please reply Yes or No."   The text will come from a number with an (855) area code. Reply "YES" to opt into text message verification.  The text message link will expire 14 days after receipt. On the last day of each month, you will receive a text message requesting enrollment verification for that month.  Reply YES to verify your enrollment if your classes have not changed. If they have changed and you are no longer enrolled in the amount of credits the recording states, contact the MVRC to update your records. 

If you respond NO for text messaging verification and have a valid email address on file, you will be opted into email verification.  On the last day of the month, you will receive an email requesting enrollment verification for that month.  Select YES; my enrollment is the same to verify your enrollment.

If you fail to verify for two consecutive months, your MHA will be placed on hold.  You need to contact GI Bill customer service (1-888-442-4551 ) to verify your enrollment and release your payments.

If you didn't receive the text message/ email or accidentally deleted it and would like to opt into text verification, please call the Education Service Center at 1-888-442-4551 to opt-in for text messaging. When you call, do NOT press 1; wait on line to speak to a representative.
