Arcadia is committed to making a private, post-secondary education affordable for all active military and veterans.
In order to start using your VA benefits, if you are not currently enrolled or admitted, you will need to complete Arcadia University's admissions process for undergraduate or graduate programs. The VA will not release your benefits unless you are in a degree-seeking program.
Note: In lieu of receiving the Certificate of Eligibility via mail, students can obtain a printout of benefits from the eBenefits account to document eligibility for veterans' education benefits. Go to the VA website to view and print a "Post-9/11 GI Bill Statement of Benefits" and email this to elnickb@arcadia.edu as a PDF, mail it to Arcadia University, Registrar's Office, Attn: Bill Elnick, 450 S. Easton Road, Glenside, PA 19038, or fax it to 215-572-2126.
While we encourage active military and veterans attending Arcadia University to contact us by phone or email with any questions pertaining to the processing of VA educational benefits while attending Arcadia University, specific questions about eligibility for VA benefits should be addressed to the VA. Arcadia University does not determine a veteran's eligibility for benefits but will assist in the completion of applications and communication of veteran student enrollment to the VA for the purposes of certification and receipt of benefits. For more information regarding individual eligibility for any of the educational benefits listed below, please contact the Department of Veteran Affairs Regional Processing Center at 1-800-827-1000 or visit the VA website.
