How will the VA know that I am taking classes at both Excelsior College and my local in-residence College to qualify for the MHA?
You should contact our Veterans Affairs office at vafa@excelsior.edu and provide the name and address of the visiting school, the course number(s), title(s), the number of credits, and the VA representative’s contact information, including fax number. Students should request course approval from their academic advisor prior to requesting a parent letter. Excelsior College’s VA certifying official will send your visiting school a parent letter informing them the college will accept the credits you are taking from their institution and then report your total credits taken during the term to the VA. This information is forwarded to the VA so they can send you a check for the appropriate MHA stipend.
