If students are enrolled in classes at separate campuses, Compliance must certify courses at each campus 24 hours apart. This is an Enrollment Manager issue; they are working on a solution. We will keep everyone notified once it changes.
Welcome current military members, veterans, and dependents! We are glad you are here.
As a military-connected student, you have lots of resources at your fingertips. Please fill out our form below to request information or to apply for any federal (VA, GI Bill®) or state (Texas Hazlewood Act) education benefit.

Request Benefits
GI Bill® is a registered trademark of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). More information about education benefits offered by the VA is available at the official U.S. government website at
benefits.va.gov/gibill.
Military Education Benefits and IncludEd
A portion of Dallas College tuition ($20 per credit hour) covers the cost of textbooks and learning materials through IncludED. Certain military-connected tuition benefits (including Chapter 33, Hazlewood and Military TA) do not cover this portion. This portion of tuition is not required of all students and is therefore not covered by state or federal military/VA education benefits. Students are responsible to either opt out of the
D program or pay the amount associated with learning materials prior to the start of the next registration period. An outstanding balance, not covered by benefits, may affect the ability to register, obtain transcripts or complete other college processes.
To ask questions or learn additional details, contact your campus Veterans Services Office or Dallas College Military-Connected Services at
MilitaryDist@DallasCollege.edu.
Attention:
College is within your reach — whether you want to further your education, convert your military experience into college credit, finish an uncompleted degree or retrain for a new civilian career.
We want to help you receive the full value of your educational benefits. And, most of all, we want to help you succeed in college.
We can help students apply for VA benefits. Find out more about
how to apply for and receive VA educational benefits.
“I’ve never been to college before. When I was in high school, I didn’t have the interest. And I would have been the first person in my family to attend, so I didn’t have anyone to help me because nobody knew how to enroll. So, I wanted to start with community college. It sounded like it would be an easier transition instead of a university. And it was.”
