Step #2

Student required to upload their VA issued Certificate of Eligibility (COE) or student veteran may upload their Statement of Benefits. Student will receive a confirmation email from VA Benefits the COE has been reviewed. *Not applicable to CH 31 VR&E students*

COE SUBMISSION

Student registers for classes. Immediately, following registration, student must submit Baylor University’s Request for Certification (RFC) to receive VA benefit payments. *Required each term to receive benefit payments*

Step #4

For a term with an outstanding bill, VA beneficiaries who have submitted their initial COE and RFC are exempt from late fees. Student may still receive payment reminders, but should  not be charged late fees. After Baylor VA Benefits receives both a COE and RFC, nothing additional is needed/required from the student.

To avoid registration holds near the end of the term, reach out to Baylor's One Stop Office regarding how to pay the balance on your account if needed.
