If you served on Active Duty, you might be eligible for education benefits offered by the Department of Veterans Affairs. For example, the Post -9/11 GI Bill® provides financial support for educational and housing expenses to individuals with at least 90 days of aggregate service after September 10, 2001, or individuals discharged with a service- connected disability after 30 days. You must have received an honorable discharge to be eligible for the Post -9/11 GI Bill®.
If you are currently serving in the military, you may be eligible for funding offered through the Department of Defense Tuition Assistance program. Check your eligibility status and the amount for which you qualify with your Service prior to enrolling.
If you are the spouse or child of a service member, you may be eligible for transfer of the service member’s Post -9/11 GI Bill® benefits to you.
L Makeup Institute will begin the enrollment and certification process as soon as you register with our admissions department, provide certificate of eligibility, and transcripts from any school you used VA benefits to attend. A VA student applying for FSA must receive a Shopping Sheet before making an informed decision to attend and receive aid at L Makeup Institute.
If your VA benefits do not cover the entire cost of the program and you wish to pay your remaining balance in cash (credit card, debit card or check), we will provide you with an Agreement of Financial Responsibility. You, and if applicable the party responsible for payment, will need to complete the agreement and return it to the Financing Department. If you wish to finance your remaining balance, you will need to apply for a loan directly with the L Makeup Institute and follow the steps under Institutional Financing Program.
Once we have confirmed your funding, such as having a Certificate of Eligibility, completed Agreement of Financial Responsibility, and/or an approved loan through the school and signed Financing Agreement, we will notify Admissions that your funding is secure and to reserve your seat in your preferred class start date. If your preferred class start is not available, admissions will work with you to get you into the next available class start. Veterans Administration does not pay application fees.
Payment of Fees for students using VA Benefits as required by Title 38 UCS 3679(e):
Once the Veteran Student has submitted a copy of his/her Certificate of Eligibility (COE) for VA Funding, the college will not impose any penalty, including the assessment of late fees, the denial of access to classes, libraries, or other institutional facilities, or the requirement that a covered individual borrow additional funds, on any covered individual because of the individual’s inability to meet his or her financial obligations to the institution due to the delayed disbursement funding from VA under chapter 31 or 33.
