Denied
The Veteran's appeal for educational assistance benefits under the Post-9/11 GI Bill and VRAP was denied because he was found ineligible due to his eligibility for other VA education programs, specifically Chapter 33. The EPI program at Saint Johns River State College was revoked by VA effective April 27, 2013.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's eligibility under the Post-9/11 GI Bill and VRAP was denied due to his existing eligibility for other VA education programs (Chapter 33).
