Education Benefits for Veterans and Dependents
As a veteran or dependent of a veteran, you may qualify for federal and/or state benefits. They include:

If you are eligible for these benefits and intend to use them, please provide us the documents listed below:

- For the CalVet Fee Waiver, please send us your award letter for past, current or future academic years via email, in person or by fax. Our contact information is below.
If you qualify for Federal Veterans Benefits (Chapter 31 or Chapter 33), you will be allowed to enroll at 快活林性息 while we await payment for tuition and fees from the VA. 快活林性息 will not impose any penalty, charge late fees or require you to borrow additional funds to cover tuition or fees. The waiting period begins the date you provide appropriate documentation. It will continue either until funds are received from the VA or until 90 days after the School Certifying Official has certified your enrollment. For more information regarding this policy, contact our School Certifying Official at veteransmail@csun.edu or (818) 677-5928.
For new 快活林性息 students: We encourage you to begin providing your documents as soon as you submit your Cal State Apply application for 快活林性息. Your application will provide you with a student ID number that you can use to submit your documents.
