Veterans benefits <p>Students receiving veterans benefits may be able to use their benefits to help fund their study abroad experience. Since the ability to use these benefits toward study abroad programs depends on a variety of complex factors, the Center for Global Education works closely with <a href="https://www.uww.edu/registrar/veterans-services">Veterans Services</a> to coordinate veterans benefits for students participating in study abroad programs.</p> <p>Students planning to use their Post-9/11 GI Bill<sup>®</sup> benefits or Wisconsin G.I. Bill benefits to assist in funding a study abroad program must meet with the Center for Global Education and Veterans Services early on the study abroad planning process, before applying to a program, to identify a program that meets the requirements of the VA and the student’s study abroad goals.</p> <p><strong>Additional resources</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.va.gov/education/about-gi-bill-benefits/how-to-use-benefits/study-at-foreign-schools/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Post-9/11 GI Bill — Study Abroad</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.wisconsin.edu/veterans/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Universities of Wisconsin, Wisconsin GI Bill Benefits: FAQs</a></li> </ul> False
