GI Bill®
The GI Bill® is a group of benefits available to veterans, service members and immediate family members. Once individuals have earned the GI Bill® through their service, the next step is to apply to use the benefit with the Department of Veterans Affairs. Once you receive a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) from the VA, present your COE to staff in Purdue's Veterans Success Center to finalize the certification process.
