  1. Is a resident of the State of Montana (per BOR Policy 940.1) and is attending a MUS qualifying campus;
  2. Has received an Honorable discharge (Honorable Under General Conditions will not be accepted) for service in active duty for other than training purposes;
  3. Has elected to become eligible for V.A. education benefits under Title 38, or Title 10, of the U.S. Code but benefits have expired or were exhausted;
  4. Has applied for the waiver no later than the third week of the first semester for which the waiver is being requested;
  5. Maintains reasonable academic progress in accordance with the campus’s Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy used in administering federal financial aid; and
  6. Has an outstanding tuition balance after applying ALL other sources of aid (see Fact Sheet for calculation examples).

Waivers for students who meet the criteria above will be applied as LAST DOLLAR awards, up to the total cost of in-state tuition only. Thus, individual tuition waiver amounts will vary, depending on the amount of federal grants and all other scholarships received by the student. Honorably Discharged Veterans Tuition Waiver FACT SHEET
