How Veteran Benefits Work with Continuing Education Classes
Continuing Education classes can be a great option whether you need flexibility, are on suspension, or would like to take a class that is difficult to find on main campus.
While our classes are eligible for the GI Bill, there are a few things you should know before you get started, especially as our classes pertain to your Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA).
Example: If nine of your credits are full session, and three are in the 10-week session, you are only considered full-time for the purposes of MHA during the 10 weeks that all of your classes overlap.
Since CU Boulder cannot certify self-paced classes until they are complete, you are required pay out of pocket for this option and the VA will refund you upon completion. While you are enrolled in a self-paced class, your MHA will be based on the other credits you take. If you are eligible for additional MHA based on your self-paced class, you will be back-paid after the course is completed and certified.
Please contact the CU Boulder Veteran and Military Affairs Office with additional questions about how your benefits work with Continuing Education classes.
