      eligibility of eligible applicants shall be certified by the
      department of veterans affairs to the director of the department of
      administrative services, and all amounts that are or become due to an
      individual or a training institution under this chapter shall be paid
      to the individual or institution by the director of the department of
      administrative services upon receipt by the director of certification
      by the president or governing board of the educational or training
      institution as to accuracy of charges made, and as to the attendance
      of the individual at the educational or training institution.  The
      department of veterans affairs may pay over the annual sum set forth
      in section 35.9 to the educational or training institution in a lump
      sum, or in installments as the circumstances warrant, upon receiving
      from the institution such written undertaking as the department may
      require to assure the use of funds for the child for the authorized
      purposes and for no other purpose.  A person is not eligible for the
      benefits of this chapter until the person has graduated from a high
