Veteran Student

Info Page Header Graphic

You served your country. We’re here to serve you.

Chattahoochee Tech values service members, veterans and their families. We are honored to assist you as you embark on an exciting academic career with us.

Military active duty, reservists, and National Guard Federal eligible service members are encouraged to receive approval from their Educational Services Officer (ESO) prior to enrolling in courses.

At Chatt Tech, the admissions process for veterans is easy. All you need to do is determine which type of student you are and follow the corresponding procedures:

  • Beginning Students have not attended college before.
  • Returning Students have completed coursework at Appalachian, Chattahoochee, or North Metro Technical Colleges previously.
  • Transfer Students are new to Chatt Tech but have attended college elsewhere.
  • Transient Students are currently enrolled at another accredited institution and will temporarily attend Chatt Tech to complete work to be transferred back to their home institution.

*Students who are admitted for a semester and do not enroll in classes will be expected to re-apply and pay the $30 non-refundable application fee.*

*Service members will be eligible to register with the same academic status they had when last attending the school. This requirement applies to any student who needed to withdraw due to military service.

Military Short Term Absence Policy

 

Note: Although it is not a requirement for admission, it may be in your best interest to submit an official copy of your joint service military transcript (US Army, Navy, Coast Guard or Marines) or your Community College of the Air Force transcript. If your military training coincides with your chosen program at Chattahoochee Tech, you could receive some academic credit which would assist in a timelier completion of your intended program of study.

Our Chattahoochee Tech VA School Certifying Officials work diligently to certify each semesters enrollment while ensuring repeat classes are not being pursued. Your cooperation in submitting your Joint Services Transcript immediately is greatly appreciated.

Request for assistance in obtaining military transcripts or other inquiries relating to veteran issues may be directed to:

Michael Payne, Director of Veteran Services
770-528-3491
VeteranServices@ChattahoocheeTech.edu

For assistance with Veteran Affairs educational benefits, please email our VA certifying Officials:
