AF VIRTUAL EDUCATION CENTER --  Update (2 Oct)

Due to the lack of a Fiscal Year (FY14) budget, all Tuition Assistance (TA) for classes starting on or after 1 October 2013 will be suspended until further notice. Effective immediately, the ability to apply for TA through the Air Force Virtual Education Center (AFVEC) is on hold.

Airmen with approved TA for FY14 may incur debt with their school should they attend classes. Students should take action to withdraw from their current class or pursue using another funding source, such as the Montgomery GI Bill or the Post 9/11 GI Bill.

Please continue to monitor the AFVEC for updates regarding TA. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Pending final DoD approval and release of the Air Force FY14 Military Tuition Assistance (MilTA) program, Airmen will not be able to apply for FY14 courses until further notice. Once approved, Airmen may submit MilTA requests for FY14 using the Air Force Virtual Education Center (AFVEC).

The Air Force is NOT stopping or suspending MilTA. Airmen are cautioned to avoid making financial decisions or commitments without an approved MilTA form. Financial decisions made without an approved MilTA form will be the responsibility of the Airman.
