All veterans that can document service through DD214, DD256, DD257, or NGB22 with a discharge status of Honorable or General Under Honorable Conditions (Other Than Honorable, Bad Conduct Discharge, Dishonorable Discharge, Entry-Level Separation do not qualify). Spouses and dependents require a statement from the serving spouse/parent and a copy of the appropriate service verification document.

Eligibility will remain in effect as long as the student is continuously enrolled. Current and new students qualify for this scholarship, but it is not retroactive.
