VA Reminder:

COVID-19 legislation that permits students to receive Military Housing Allowance (MHA) at the resident rate, while taking approved converted (online) courses, will end on June 1, 2022. When enrolling in courses after that date or any subsequent term, students will need to enroll in approved resident classes to continue receiving their MHA at the resident rate. Additionally, if a student chooses to continue approved training online after June 1, 2022, their GI Bill benefits, such as monthly housing allowance, will reduce to half the national average, and they may end up owing a tuition debt to their school.

If a student chooses to continue training online after June 1, 2022, and their course is not an approved resident class, they will not receive GI Bill benefits for their training (monthly housing allowance will stop and they may end up owing a tuition debt to their school).

**Courses affected by the expiration of this VA legislation are those that list the type of training as Remote Virtual Training (RTV) and Synchronous Virtual Learning (SVL). These courses will be certified as distance learning after June 1, 2022.**
