Area veterans and their dependents interested in using their military education benefits to earn a college degree from Missouri State University-West Plains (MSU-WP) can attend an informational session Friday, Nov. 19, at the university’s Shannon Hall facility in Mountain Grove.
No appointment is necessary; veterans are invited to drop by anytime between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. in room 106 at Shannon Hall, 401 E. 17th St.
Mark White, coordinator of Veteran Services, said university officials will be on hand to help veterans navigate the admissions and financial aid process for the 2022 spring semester.
This includes assistance with:
- completing the application for admission
- filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
- choosing a degree program
- completing the veteran’s educational benefits eligibility forms
Veterans interested in taking classes during the 2022 spring semester should bring their 2019 personal income tax records for filling out the FAFSA, and their DD-214 for filling out the educational benefits forms.
