We recognize the unique needs of our veterans and current military service members and we offer a variety of resources to make your transition to MassArt as smooth as possible.
Am I eligible for Veterans Affairs Benefits?
Veterans and service persons, their spouses and dependents, or their survivors may be eligible for educational benefits. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), not MassArt, determines your eligibility for any education benefits.
