Tutoring Assistance

Recipients of benefits from Chapters 30, 34/30, 33, 35 and 1606 have help available to them for the cost of a private tutor. If students attend school half time or more, they can receive up to $100 per calendar month. This additional money is paid without any charges against VA educational benefits for students using Chapters 34/30 and 35. However, students under Chapter 30 will be charged against their entitlement when they go over $600 in tutorial assistance.

The maximum amount payable is $1,200 per year. Students are responsible for paying their tutors and will then be reimbursed by the VA. Tutors must be approved through each academic department. Approval forms are available in the ASU Veterans Affairs Office, Room 100 in the Hardeman Building.
