I was in the VR&E program and graduated May 8th and the term ended May 6th.

I was accepted into a grad program two weeks after graduation, starting in the summer. No overlap. I had planned on using my GI Bill. My university certifying official said it’s no problem to do this. I got a letter in the mail yesterday from the VA saying I do qualify for benefits but I will be paid none/unable to use my GI Bill for grad school.

Weirdly two days ago I got an email from the VA saying my previous school has updated my enrollment by the certifying official.

Not really sure what to do, can’t afford grad school without GI Bill worried the appeal is going to take longer than the summer session even lasts. Anyone else run into this issue after VR&E.

Calling in the morning but curious if anyone has any insight.

Basically title…

Did you ever try to file? Why or why not? Did you start and give up?

My friend is rated at 60% and he’s clearly underrated for like 3-4 things, but he won’t file because he says it’s too much. Which made me start thinking do other veterans struggle with this?

I had another friend who seriously needed help and never filed and I told him like weekly to do it. He’s since committed suicide, but it makes me upset the VA makes it so overwhelming.
