A change of program is a change of objective, which generally requires a change of the courses required to attain the new objective. Also, a change resulting in a material loss of credit or in an extension of time needed to complete the objective is considered to be a change of program. Whether or not this constitutes a change of program is a decision made by the Veterans Administration. The student would need to complete the proper VA form when changing programs or options in a program and submit them for processing. Previous training must be reviewed and furnished to the Certification Officer for reporting to the Veterans Administration.
