OMB Control Number: 2900-0118.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: Students receiving VA education benefits and are enrolled
in two training institutions, must have the primary institution at
which he or she is pursuing approved program of education verify that
their courses pursued at a secondary school will be accepted as full
credit towards their course objective. VA sends VA Form Letter 22-315
to the student requesting that they have the certifying official of his
or her primary institution list the course or courses pursued at the
secondary school for which the primary institution will give full
credit. Educational payment for courses pursued at a secondary school
is not payable until VA receives evidence from the primary institution
verifying that the student is pursuing his or her approved program
while enrolled in these courses. VA Form Letter 22-315 serves as this
certification of acceptance.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
