Riverland Community College

Riverland Community College acts as a liaison with the Veterans Administration for individuals who wish to utilize their veteran's benefits.

To apply for veteran education benefits may apply online at www.gibill.va.gov. Applications should be completed 8-10 weeks prior to the term for which benefits are requested.

Basic information about educational benefits programs administered by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs is found online at www.gibill.va.gov then click on "Education Benefits". You may also call 1-888-442-4551 and speak with a representative. You may also contact Mark Larsen, Southeast Regional Coordinator at 507-779-9375 or mark.larsen@state.mn.us .

Eligible persons are reminded that the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs will not pay benefits for repeated or audited courses. In addition, benefits for short courses--those that do not meet for the entire term--will be paid for only the days that the class meets.
