Program Selection
1. Veterans receiving VA benefits may select any program that is approved by the Department of Veteran Affairs leading to a degree offered at Napa Valley College. Check with the NVC Certifying Official if your program is approved by the VA. Only one program may be pursued under certification for benefits. If the veteran decides to major in two programs at the same time, only one will be certified. You may search for an approved programs online at http://inquiry.vba.va.gov/weamspub/buildSearchInstitutionCriteria.do.
2. Veterans may receive VA benefits for a second degree after completion of a first degree. Consult with the Veterans Services Counselor or the School Certifying Official if you are interested in pursuing a dual major.
3. Veterans may change a program of study and continue to receive benefits if the new program is approved by VA. Veterans are required to develop an Educational Plan with an academic counselor for every new program of study.
