The benefits Noble Desktop accepts

Our approved programs are open to veterans, service members, and eligible dependents using any of the three chapters below. VA decides who is eligible and what each benefit pays. Our School Certifying Official handles the certification with VA once you enroll.

Chapter 33, Post-9/11 GI Bill®
The most common one. VA can pay tuition and fees plus a monthly housing allowance. Because class meets in person rather than online, VA treats it differently when setting that allowance; VA decides the amount, so ask them about your own.
Chapter 31, Veteran Readiness and Employment
For a service-connected disability and an employment barrier. Your VR&E counselor authorizes the training and we bill VA directly, so start with your counselor.
Chapter 35, Survivors' and Dependents' Educational Assistance
For eligible spouses and children. It pays a set monthly amount rather than tuition, so it will not necessarily cover a full program on its own.

Not sure which benefit you have or how much entitlement is left? That is what the conversation below is for, and you can always confirm independently with VA at va.gov/education or the GI Bill® hotline at 888-442-4551.

Speak to a representative

Not sure which program fits, what your benefit covers, or how the housing allowance works for an in-person schedule? Leave your details and one of our School Certifying Officials will call or email you within one business day.

Questions veterans ask

Are these programs really approved for VA education benefits?
Yes. Noble Desktop's approved programs are listed with VA under facility code 25112332. Look up Noble Desktop in the VA GI Bill® Comparison Tool to see the approved program list. Approval means the programs met the standards of the State Approving Agency and VA. It is not an endorsement or recommendation of Noble Desktop by either one.
Do I have to attend in person?
To use VA benefits at Noble Desktop, yes: our approved programs meet in person at 185 Madison Avenue in Manhattan. If you want a fully online option, our partner school VDCI holds its own VA approval for online programs; see veterans.vdci.edu.
Will my benefits cover the whole cost?
It depends on your benefit chapter, your entitlement percentage, and how much entitlement you have left. Chapter 33 at 100% typically covers tuition and fees for an approved program. Chapter 35 and Chapter 30 pay a fixed monthly amount and often will not cover a full program by themselves. One of our School Certifying Officials will go through the expected balance with you before you enroll rather than after.
How do I enroll using my benefits?
Pick your program and start date and submit the short enrollment form. One of our School Certifying Officials will be in touch to confirm the details, then we register you and certify your enrollment with VA before class starts. Upload your Certificate of Eligibility and any past transcripts with the form, or send them later to hello@nobledesktop.com.
I have partial benefits, 90% or less. Can I still enroll?
Yes. Submit the enrollment form and note your percentage, or call first; one of our School Certifying Officials will go through the balance with you, and set up a payment plan if you need one, before anything is binding.
How does Chapter 31 work here?
Your Veteran Readiness and Employment counselor authorizes the training and submits the authorization, and we bill VA directly. Chapter 31 is a separate authorization from GI Bill® eligibility, so start with your counselor. Tell us you are Chapter 31 and we will coordinate from our side.
Can I take two programs at the same time?
Not concurrently. You can complete them one after another. VA will not certify overlapping enrollments, so we sequence them.
Who do I call at VA with benefit questions?
The GI Bill® hotline is 888-442-4551, and benefit information is at benefits.va.gov/gibill. For questions about your payments and entitlement, VA is the authority, not us.
