Transcript Assurance for Heroes Act
This bill requires educational institutions approved for Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) education benefits to provide veterans and eligible individuals with digital copies of their official transcripts upon request. It amends federal law to mandate that schools make transcripts available in digital format, rather than only physical copies, for those using VA education programs. The requirement directly affects veterans and beneficiaries seeking to transfer education credits or apply for further schooling using VA benefits. The key mechanism is a new legal obligation for participating institutions to offer this digital service.
