Are there any educational benefits available for children of veterans?
Yes, there are educational benefits available for children of veterans in Hawaii. According to the Department of Education, Hawaii has two programs that offer educational benefits for children of veterans: the Educational Assistance Program and the Postsecondary Education Program. The Educational Assistance Program provides tuition assistance and other educational benefits for children of veterans who have honorable discharged, were killed in the line of duty, or were declared missing in action. The amount of assistance available depends on the student’s family income, and the number of other children in the family with similar educational benefits. The Postsecondary Education Program provides additional tuition assistance for eligible children of veterans who are accepted to postsecondary institutions in Hawaii. The amount of assistance available is based on the student’s family income, the cost of the postsecondary institution, and the number of other children in the family with similar educational benefits. Both programs are administered by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, and are subject to certain eligibility requirements. To determine if you or your child qualify for these educational benefits, you should contact the Department of Veterans’ Affairs or your local veterans’ service center.
