Pensacola State College has served veterans and their families since 1948. The Veteran Services Office (VSO), located in Building 6 on the Pensacola Campus, assists students with Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA) and College VSO procedures. Veteran Services is part of the Student Financial Services Division of the College. The VSO assists a student with his or her DVA education claims and is responsible for meeting all institutional reporting requirements mandated by DVA regulations. A student using Veteran Benefits is required to follow both the academic policies and procedures for obtaining a degree or certificate at Pensacola State College and adhere to DVA policies and procedures. DVA determines the education benefits and amount to be paid to the eligible student. Both the College and the student must abide by DVA regulations. The College’s VSO is a service of Pensacola State College and not an affiliate of the United States Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA). Resources are also available in the VSO. Pensacola State College’s VSO is committed to providing resources online for students, limited and protected by concerns for privacy and security. A student should frequently consult the DVA website: http://www.benefits.va.gov/gibill/ for updates.
