Financial Aid: Military Benefits
Veterans Benefits
The Art Institutes International Minnesota is approved for the training of veterans and eligible veterans' dependents by the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs.
Students sponsored or assisted by the Veterans Administration may receive assistance from the admissions department in the filing of appropriate forms. These students must maintain satisfactory attendance and academic progress. (See the Policies section of your school catalog for more information.) Students receiving veterans' benefits must report all prior education and training before attending The Art Institutes International Minnesota. The Art Institutes International Minnesota will evaluate prior credit and accept that which is appropriate. The time to complete the program and the total tuition will be reduced proportionately and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs will be notified.
The Art Institutes International Minnesota also offers the Minnesota GI Bill award to eligible veterans and service members. The maximum a student may receive through this grant for the 2008-2009 academic year is $3,000.
Servicemembers Opportunity Colleges
The Art Institutes International Minnesota is a member of Servicemembers Opportunity Colleges, a consortium of national higher education associations that functions in cooperation with the Department of Defense, the military services (including the National Guard), and the Coast Guard to help meet the voluntary higher education needs of service members.
