Prepare for the new term!

Full-time enrollment for fall and spring terms is 12 units or more. Students enrolling in courses must take at least 1 unit of an approved "in-resident" (in-person/F2F) or hybrid (HYB) class to continue to receive the MHA at the resident rate. Otherwise, you will receive the online rate, which is half the national average.

If you have questions regarding the in-resident requirement for VA educational benefits, please contact the VRC by phone at (951) 571-6247 or by email at veterans@mvc.edu

Student enrollment fees will be waived if eligible.

What fees are not covered by the Cal Vet Fee Waiver?
