[Oacrao-l] More questions about your veteran students

[Whitaker, Keila]

OSU-OKC has a little over 400 veterans, we process approximatley 1050 certifications each year.
 
We have one full-time staff member and 4 work-studies.  We are requesting a half-time staff member to assist with Chapter 33 certifications, but that request was not granted this year.  We will try again due to the large volume of paperwork associated with Ch. 33 benefits.

Subject: [Oacrao-l] More questions about your veteran students



Good Friday afternoon to you all...

 

The emails recently about your institution's VA certifying officer sparked some discussion over here, and I wondered if you wouldn't mind sharing and/or clarifying some info for your school again...

 

1)      Some of you reported the number of students served, but I wanted to clarify how many students you serve vs. number of total certifications done each year.  For example, we process approx. 600-670 students in the fall & spring semesters, and around 250-275 in the summer.  So, for all of 2011, we processed 1,541 certifications.

2)      Concerning your staff-many reported your numbers, but do you feel you are adequately staffed for your volume?  Are you experiencing requests and/or suggestions to increase attention to your veteran students?  

 

Thanks, and I hope everyone enjoys your weekend!
