The Board has determined that the overpayment of Post-9/11 GI Bill educational assistance benefits in the amount of $747.78 was properly created and thus denied.
The deciding factor: The decision is based on the proper creation of an overpayment due to changes in credit hours and withdrawal from classes, resulting in a reduction in benefits received by the Veteran.
