SUNY Broome College provides veteran education benefits to eligible veterans and dependents. The college's Veterans Office acts as a liaison between the school and VA regional office to process benefit payments. Veterans can use GI Bill programs like Post-9/11 GI Bill, Montgomery GI Bill, and others to cover tuition. To apply for benefits, veterans submit forms like their DD-214 to the Veterans Office and complete a benefits request form along with their class schedule. The office helps veterans navigate the application process for VA education benefits to fund their studies at SUNY Broome.
