Veterans (certain dependents of veterans, Reservists and Guard members) may be entitled to educational benefits from the Veterans' Administration.
PCC is state approved for the training of veterans and most of the programs offered by PCC have been approved by the VA.
Verify your status first
You should verify your program status before registering. If you have eligibility questions call the Veterans' Administration at 1-888-442-4551.
All veteran student files are maintained at the Sylvania Campus, CC Building, Room 246.
Before your first term at PCC
If you are using veterans benefits for the first time or are transferring to PCC, you must apply through this office and complete an intake interview either in person or by phone. Call the office to find out which documents to provide for the certification process at 503-977-4502. A Veterans Specialist can help you complete your packet.
What the VA expects
VA regulations require that you maintain a 2.0 GPA in your declared major to receive educational benefits. Also, the VA will not pay for audits, W, I, CIP's or NP grades.
If you're receiving benefits, be sure to meet these conditions to avoid VA overpayment or possible interruption of benefits.
