Veterans Educational Grant If veteran left active duty more than ten years before the start of this semester, then only part-time study is allowed (11 credits or less). If veteran is eligible for National Guard Tuition Grant or Reserve Tuition Assistance Program, then one is not eligible for the VetEd Grant; it does not matter if they applied for the other grant. The benefit is based on active duty service: 90-180 days (30 credits or two semesters) 181-730 days (60 credits or four semesters) 731+ days (120 credits or eight semesters)

Grant Reimbursement Payment - WDVA will reimburse 100% of tuition and fees up to the UW-Madison undergraduate rate for the same number of credits. Eligible fees are limited to Segregated Fees (UW System) and Material Fees (WTCS). Wisconsin GI Bill – the VetEd Grant reimburses the same tuition and fees remitted or waived by the Wisconsin GI Bill. In 2007 the Wisconsin GI Bill increased to full (100%) remission of eligible fees at Wisconsin public schools; leaving no fees eligible for VetEd reimbursement for an eligible veteran.
