Every veteran studying or planning to study under the GI Bill of Rights will have to meet two new government regulations which go into effect today. The new regulations replace Instruction 1A, which was repealed on October 6.
According to the new ruling, known as Instruction 1B, any veteran who has completed or discontinued a GI Bill course and wants to take another course in a different field must now undergo what the Veterans Administration calls "advisement and guidance."
Those in one graduate school who wish to transfer to another will have to go to the VA with their proposed switch and explain why. This ruling does not affect students in the normal college-to-graduate school progression.
The Counsellor for Veterans Office yesterday was not sure what the VA will consider "justifiable" change.
Second Ruling
The second new veterans' regulation provides that men applying for a certificate of eligibility for the GI Bill must specify the name of the course and school. This has been instituted to stop veterans from applying for an eligibility certificate without any college in mind.
Eligibility certificates issued before today will be honored only if there is no change in field of study or in schools unless originally specified otherwise.
