VA Education Overpayments

To avoid overpayment of benefits, students must report to the UWF Veterans Services Office any change in credit hours (drop/add), withdrawal, or termination of attendance.

All overpayments must be repaid to the DVA. Interest and administrative fees may be assessed and added to the original amount of the debt until it is cleared.

Failure to repay any overpayment will result in adverse credit rating. Debt collection may be turned over to the IRS or a collection agency.

What causes an overpayment?

An overpayment may result if a student receives a grade which is not used in computing requirements for graduation. These grades include I, I*, TR, V, W, WP, X, ZZ, etc. (For a further explanation of these grades, consult the University Catalog.) Another major cause of overpayment is the student's failure to report course changes immediately to the UWF Veterans Services Office. Overpayments may also result if a student stops attending class or information is received from professors indicating poor attendance by a student receiving DVA benefits.
