GI BILL Educational Benefits Checklist For Veterans
In order to draw your GI Bill educational benefits at NOC, there are a few bits of paperwork
you need to complete. Please refer to the lists below to determine if you have done everything
you need to do in order to get paid by the VA while you are in school:
First Time Using Your GI Bill Benefits?
1.____If you haven’t already, you will need to fill out an application for GI Bill benefits. You can do that
electronically on the GI Bill Website GI Bill Application or you can print the application (VA Form 22-1990) off of the
NOC website at 22-1990 (Printable Form) and get it to us.
2.____Get us a copy of your DD-214, which is the form showing your active duty periods of service.
3.____Order an official copy of your military transcript so we can review it for credits that can be applied to your
degree program at NOC: For the US Army, the US Coast Guard, US Navy, and the US Marine Corps the transcript is
called the Joint Services Transcript (JST). Order one at the Official JST Website. For the US Air Force (CCAF
transcript) go to CCAF Transcript Ordering Instructions.
Alternatively, you can fill out the Military Transcript Request Form and send it to us. This will allow us to order
your military transcript on your behalf.
