• Reimbursement check will be mailed to the address on the application. Please consider using a permanent address (such as a family member’s). If you use your current address, notify this office if you move to avoid delivery delays.
• The Education Services Office will request information needed to process the state reimbursement directly from the schools. Unless you hear otherwise, you do not need to submit anything beyond the application.
• If you become flagged PRIOR TO the first date of class (due to a failing PT test, height/weight, or other adverse action) then you are no longer eligible for STA. If you become flagged DURING the semester, you will still receive STA for Summer 2019 but will not be eligible for future semesters until the flag has been resolved.
• If you seperate from the ND National Guard (including a state transfer) prior to the end of the semester, you will lose your eligibility for STA for summer 2019.
