You can use your education benefits at a foreign school only if we’ve approved the program that you want to enroll in. Here are some requirements related to program approvals: * We’ll


approve degree programs from schools in foreign countries that are similar to degrees granted by accredited U.S. colleges and universities. * For private schools overseas, the degree must be


equivalent to those granted by public colleges and universities in the same country, and the school must have the same entrance requirements. * We won’t approve independent study, including


distance learning. If you’ve received your Certificate of Eligibility (COE) and are ready to enroll, check first to make sure we’ve already approved the program. Send an email to


[email protected]. You’ll need to give us the name of the foreign school, the complete address, and the name of the program you want to enroll in. If you enroll in a program we


haven’t approved, you’ll have to pay all costs at the school, including tuition and fees.
