Cal Vet Fee Waiver

Section 32320 of the California Education Code provides for the waiver of certain fees, other than nonresident tuition, for certain veterans' dependents.

CSUF Veterans Certification provides referral information to the local County VA offices who assist with program eligibility and application.

Eligibility letters, issued by the County office, are submitted to CSUF Veterans Services for data entry, which initiates the waiver of fees.

Not all fees are waived.

Cal Vet Fee Waiver cannot be used for Intersession.

If planning to use Cal Vet Fee Waiver for a summer session, the eligibility letter must be on file with CSUF Veterans Certification for the upcoming academic year, not the academic year preceding the summer session. For more information click here.

Compulsory Military Service Policy

CSUF has posted a policy regarding students who are called to compulsory military duty. If you are newly admitted or a continuing student please see our policy here.

Deferred Payment Option

Only veterans who are attending their first semester at CSUF and who are receiving GI Bill benefits are eligible. Please arrange for fee deferments with the Veteran Certification Office (LH 116) at least three (3) business days prior to your Titan registration appointment. This fee deferment allows payment of tuition fees later in the semester without being disenrolled from classes. However, billing will continue to be issued until fees are paid and a registration hold may be in effect until fees are paid.
