Denied
The veteran's enrollment at Western Seminary Seattle from January 4, 2002 to September 18, 2002 was not approved by the State Approving Agency as a VA-approved institution. Therefore, payment for this period is denied.
The deciding factor: VA did not approve Western Seminary Seattle during the specified enrollment period due to lack of approval from the State Approving Agency.
