Parent School Letter
A student may take courses that apply to his or her degree at more than one school.
The school that will grant the degree is the student's "parent" school and all the other schools are "secondary". The VA can pay benefits for the courses taken at the secondary schools based on these examples:
- A student is only enrolled at the secondary school (supplemental enrollment); the VA will pay for the credits taken at the secondary school.
- A student is enrolled at the primary school and the secondary school at the same time (concurrent enrollment): the CA will pay for the combined credit, taking overlapping enrollment dates into account.
It is against VA rules to issue a parent school letter to a student pursuing a different degree at a secondary institution. Students pursuing a degree at secondary institution while pursuing a degree with CWU will become ineligible for a parent school letter.
Parent School Letter
The Parent School Letter gives the receiving school assurance that the class, if successfully completed will apply appropriately to the student's academic program.
