child of a disabled veteran school benefits?

Posted: June 18th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Travel For Disabled | Tags: , , , , | 4 Comments »

I am a child of a disabled veteran. I am 25 years old and wanting to start up college in the fall. I actually just called my dad to ask him if I still qualify to get my tuition paid for since I’m 25, he said he wasn’t for sure (hes out at Andrews Air Force base right now on vacation). Does anyone know If I still qualify or not? If you aren’t for sure do you know of any offices or numbers I should call to check and see?
Thanks!!
I’m going up to the school tomorrow and talking to someone in the Veterans Affair office.
thanks! =)
What do you exactly mean by 100% disabled? I know he was honorably discharged due to disability. He had 2 strokes when he was in.

    You might qualify if your father is 100% disabled and can’t work. Direct your question to VA.gov.

    If your Father is collecting a check from
    the Dept of VA and he is Service Connected
    rating is 70% or above…
    You will qualify for College Tuition Aid from the VA…

    You will need his SS number for the VA
    to tell you anything…

    You can go to the Dept of Veterans Affairs website
    to find all the information you need…
