The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) administers VA education benefit programs through the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA). The VBA is responsible for determining your eligibility for education benefits and issuing benefit payments based on the requirements of the program you are using.
If you attend Arizona State University, the university's role is to certify your enrollment information to the VA. After your enrollment is certified, the VA reviews your eligibility, processes your claim, and determines any education benefit payments you are entitled to receive.
