Veterans Services
Disabled veterans, post-Vietnam era veterans who participated in the payroll deduction programs, members of reserve units and dependents of disabled, deceased or retired veterans may be eligible to receive educational benefits while attending college at least half-time.
Your first step in activating your benefits is to meet with the Columbia College Veterans Certifying Official. Please call 209.588.5105 to make this appointment. This process should be completed 30-120 days prior to the beginning of the term if advance pay is being requested, or at the time of registration for normal processing. Information regarding other documents that may be required is also available in the Veterans Affairs Office.
