Abstract	Policy barriers at the national and state levels are preventing many student veterans from achieving their academic and professional potential. Layers of rigid rules determine when, where, and how post-9/11 GI Bill® recipients -- most student veterans -- can utilize their service-connected education benefits. Policymakers should work to knock down these barriers. The Veteran Higher Education Task Force developed five national and state policy recommendations that would enhance the lives of student veterans: (1) Ensure guidance on student veteran policy is current and accessible; (2) Increase assessment and oversight to ensure quality programs; (3) Adopt a new approach to flexible learning models; (4) Enhance degree programs through a focus on credentialing, certification, and licensing; and (5) Emphasize health and well-being.
