Instructions for students:
Important
  1. Fill out the Cal Vet Fee Waiver form and send it in to the County Veterans Service Office. You should do this once a year, usually after taxes are done on April 15th.
  2. Once you receive your award letter from that office, you need to take it immediately to the Palomar College Financial Aid Office. The Financial Aid Office will also require you to fill out a BOGW form as well. This form is required by Palomar College in order to process your award letter.
  3. Failure to follow these instructions will only cost you money.

California College Fee Waiver Program
Under the California Education Code, dependents of veterans whose death or disability was service-connected may be eligible for exemption from many University fees. Applications and information are available in the Student Services building at the Veterans counter or from your county Veterans' Services Office.

How do I apply?
Contact your local county Veterans Service Office to obtain applications, information, and apply for benefits under this program.
