At Divergence Academy, student placement is our #1 yardstick. In other words, we are laser-focused on preparing our students to get hired by top tech companies in this incredibly competitive job landscape. Here’s how we do it:
Experience the benefits you deserve in just three simple steps:
If we determine that you are VET TEC eligible, you can then apply to your VA-approved training provider of choice. They may review your qualifications to assess whether you’ll be able to successfully complete the program and find meaningful, relevant employment.
VET TEC is a five-year pilot program. You can participate as long as the funding is available.
Note: If you haven’t already applied for VA education benefits (VA
Form 22-1990), you’ll need to fill out an application or apply online.
Note: Your VET TEC training won’t count against your GI Bill® entitlement, and you only need one day of unexpired GI Bill benefits to participate.
Note: Your VET TEC training won’t count against your GI Bill® entitlement, and you only need one day of unexpired GI Bill benefits to participate.
If you attend your training program in person, your housing stipend will equal the monthly military Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) for an E-5 with dependents, based on the zip code of where you attend.
If you participate in an online program, your stipend will be half of the BAH national average for an E-5 with dependents.
Note: Your VET TEC training won’t count against your GI Bill® entitlement, and you only need one day of unexpired GI Bill benefits to participate.
Our admissions team can guide you through additional financing options if you’re paying an amount not covered by your GI Bill® benefit.
Note: Exhausting your benefits will impact your housing allowance.
Your benefits will depend on your eligibility. Contact the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) to learn about your education benefits eligibility.
For non-college degree programs based on clock hours, GI Bill® usage depends on the cost of tuition which is billed as a percentage of the annual cap. The VA’s calculator takes the annual cap and divides it by the number of days in the year to determine a daily cost of GI Bill® benefits.
For non-degree schools like Divergence Academy, the annual cap is $24,477 from August 1, 2021–July 31, 2022. This translates to the VA equating $67.99 per one day of GI Bill® education benefits.
To calculate the cost of your GI Bill® for your course of choice, the VA divides the total tuition costs by the daily costs ($67.99) to determine how many days a GI Bill® education benefit uses up.
Note: The VA uses a 30-day month formula regardless of how many days are in the current month.
If you use your GI Bill® for an eligible program, you’ll receive a monthly housing allowance (MHA). This is based on the campus zip code where you’re enrolled. You’ll pay on the first day of the month for the month prior (e.g., March 1 if you started classes February 5). However, if you start classes later (e.g., after March 16), your housing allowance may be delayed.
Note: Active duty service members will not receive MHA. Recently discharged veterans must submit the DD Form 214 (Member Copy 4) to confirm their release date from the military before being paid an allowance. GI Bill® students are eligible for an MHA the day after their release.
