The Veteran's appeal is remanded due to the lack of a decision from which this appeal stems, and for failing to provide proper notice as required by law. The AOJ must associate with the record the original May 2022 denial letter and issue the Veteran a new decision that includes citation to any internal guidance or other authority relied upon to support the conclusion that clinical training taken as part of degree program does not qualify for the Edith Nourse Rogers STEM Scholarship.
The deciding factor: The AOJ failed to provide proper notice as required by law, including citation to any internal guidance or other authority relied upon to support the conclusion that clinical training taken as part of a degree program does not qualify for the Edith Nourse Rogers STEM Scholarship.

What this means for you
A remand sends an issue back for more development, often a new examination or missing records. It does not award the benefit or decide the final outcome. The original decision explains the additional work ordered.
