College Tuition Fee Waiver

The College Tuition Fee Waiver for Veteran Dependents waives mandatory system-wide tuition and fees at any State of California Community College, California State University, or University of California institution. This program does not cover expenses such as books, housing, or parking. Students must meet in-state residency requirements as determined by their school. Veterans do not need to submit proof of residency.
