Our focus is to assist veterans and their dependents or covered individuals in applying and processing educational benefits that they may be eligible for through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

The BookReady program was created to help save students money and time. The rate for Fall 2024 - Spring 2025 returning, transfer and graduate students is $39.75 per registered credit hour. It doesn’t matter how many books or what the books are, and it doesn’t matter if you’re an undergraduate, graduate, or doctoral student. The total charge will be added to your student account; if you add or drop a class before the add/drop deadline, your account is automatically updated, and your books are adjusted.
Veteran Students are encouraged to apply for Federal Student Aid and scholarships outside of the veteran specific aid options.
