Academic Resources for Veterans

VA Certifying Official at MICA

VA Certifying Officials act as liaisons between the College, its students, and all the agencies involved with VA benefits

They are authorized to sign and submit forms to the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs on behalf of veterans, active-duty service members, National Guard members and their dependents. Certifying Officials certify (confirm to the VA) enrollment, document changes in status, and report circumstances affecting benefits. The Certifying Official is an employee of Maryland Institute College of Art, not the VA. The Certifying Official cannot determine eligibility for VA Educational Benefits. 

This website is your first stop for information for student veterans' benefits. We encourage you to use it to acquaint yourself with your rights and responsibilities as a veteran student. We hope you will find it helpful.

We are personally available to assist you.

Our office is located in the Registrar's Office on the 2nd floor of the Bunting Center at 1401 W. Mount Royal Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21217.
