I am enrolled for summer classes but have not received benefits. Why?

Answer: If you did not notify the NDSU VA Representative that you were attending summer classes and wanted to be certified, that did not occur. Unlike the fall and spring semesters, students are not automatically certified for the summer session. If you would like to be certified, simply contact the NDSU VA Representative at 701-231-7985.
