The University of Mary Hardin-Baylor is fully approved to offer instruction to students attending college under the provisions of the United States Code, Title 38, and Chapter 30, 31, 32, 33, 35, 1606, and 1607.

The University contacts for individuals planning to use Veterans Administration (VA) benefits are the Veterans’ Certifying Officials in the Registrar’s Office.

 

An individual planning to enroll in MyWay at UMHB using VA benefits must comply with the following procedures:

  1. Complete all requirements for admission to MyWay at UMHB.
  2. Have an evaluation of service schools/experiences completed by the Registrar’s Office to determine any awarding of military credit.
  3. In coordination with your success coach, register for only courses that are required for completion of your selected degree.
  4. Maintain satisfactory academic progress. The provisions found under the heading of “Academic Standards" in this catalog will apply.

An enrollment certification will be submitted to the Veterans Administration only upon the student's attainment of semester credit hours equivalent to the student's designated enrollment status.  For example, if a student's designated enrollment status is full-time, an enrollment certification will be submitted to the Veterans Administration only upon the student's attainment of at least 12 semester credit hours.

In the event a student does not attain semester credit hours equivalent to the student's designated enrollment status, an enrollment certification will be submitted to the Veterans Administration only at the end of the student's six month term and only for the semester credit hours attained by the student during that six month term.  For example, if a student's designated enrollment status is full-time but the student only attains 9 semester credit hours during the student's six month term, an enrollment certification will be submitted to the Veterans Administration only at the end of the student's six month term and only for 9 semester credit hours.

In the event a student does not attain any semester credit hours during the student's six month term, no enrollment certification will be submitted to the Veterans Administration.
