Introduction
Beginning Summer 2022, all military-affiliated students (Active-Duty, National Guard, Reserve, Veteran service members, as well as, their Spouses and Child Dependents) will need to submit an online military request form prior to registration, each term.
This will ensure we have the most current up-to-date military information, including branch, status and funding information on file.
If using VA benefits, completing this form authorizes Empire State University to certify your enrollment for the specified term to the VA.
If not completed, we will not be able to certify your enrollment to the VA or credit your student account.
The form can be found on our website: My Military Information Form
Additional information regarding benefits can also be found on our website: https://www.sunyempire.edu/registrar/general-information/veterans-benefits/
Please email vco@sunyempire.edu if you have any VA benefit questions.
