Florida National Guard Educational Dollars for Duty

How do your benefits work at FIU?

• How do I use my education benefits?

  Register and/or login to the Florida National Guard website. 

  Follow the steps provided on the website to apply for Educational Dollars for Duty.

  View the Applying for EDD Benefits Guide for additional information. 

• How will I receive this benefit?

  Submit your EDD voucher to FIU’s Student Financials Third Party Billing team. Courses approved/covered will be billed and applied to your account. Any portion not covered by your tuition assistance is the responsibility of the student.

• Can I use other education benefits with EDD?

  Yes. We highly encourage students to fill out their FAFSA and apply for other funds such as scholarships to help them pay for their tuition and educational expenses. Additionally, using state funds/benefits does not conflict with your federal VA education benefits.
