To receive the resident MHA rate at least ONE of your courses must be in person attendance, meaning a section other than all online.
EWU course sections 25/27/28 (state-supported) and sections 75/77 (non-state supported) are designated as online courses.
If all classes are online learning, students will receive the VA national online rate (half the national average).
You can view these rates online at VA website GI Bill® Comparison Tool: https://www.va.gov/education/gi-bill-comparison-tool/
Post-9/11 GI Bill® students who receive Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) payments are required to verify enrollment at the end of each month.
What is enrollment verification?
Enrollment verification is a new requirement for Post-9/11 GI Bill students to verify that they have remained enrolled in the same courses or training every month. If you fail to verify enrollment, MHA payments will be withheld. To streamline the process, VA is providing the option to verify enrollment easily and securely via text message.
How do I verify enrollment?
You can verify enrollment using the following methods:
Via Text Message from VA – This is the method strongly recommended by the VA. VA will send text message asking if you remained enrolled. in course for the month/year. You will respond with the answer
Via Email – Students who do not Opt-In for text will be automatically enrolled in email verification and sent an automated email on the last day of the month to verify their enrollment status
Via Phone – If you are unable to verify via text or email, you will need to contact the Education Call Center (ECC) at 1-888-GIBILL-1 (1-888-442-4551) and ask a representative to verify your enrollment.
What happens if I fail to verify my enrollment?
If you fail to verify enrollment for two consecutive months, your MHA/kicker payments will be placed on hold. In order to have your payments released, you will need to call the ECC to verify your enrollment. When you call the ECC to release your payments, you may also enroll in text message verification at that time.
Payments are sent out on the first of the month and can take up to five days to arrive via electronic transfer.
