NOTICE: As of October 1, 2018, the Higher Education Coordinating Commission is no longer Oregon’s State Approving Agency (SAA) for veterans education and training, so is no longer responsible for approving and monitoring postsecondary institutions and training establishments participating in veterans’ education benefits administered by the U.S Department of Veterans Affair (VA). For more information, please contact Katherine Nicholson, the VA Education Liaison Representative (ELR) at 503-412-4669 or ELR.VBAPORT@va.gov.
