Student dependents may be eligible for the state benefit Alabama Dependent Scholarship, or most commonly known as the Alabama GI Bill®. Students may apply at any time as long as they meet the qualifications.
Please note, there has been financial changes to the Alabama Dependent Scholarship beginning July 2017.
Once student receives a certificate in the mail indicating they are using the Alabama Dependent Scholarship, a copy of the certificate is sent to The University of Alabama. After the student registers for classes each semester a credit will appear on the student’s account, no additional paperwork is needed.
Students under the Alabama Dependent Scholarship go directly to The University Supply Store located in the Ferguson Center in order to acquire textbooks needed each semester.
For any questions or problems with the Alabama Dependent Scholarship please contact Student Account Services.
The Office of Veteran and Military Affairs does not certify payment or textbooks for the Alabama Dependent Scholarship.
