Qualifying for GI Bill funding is a long long process, and very challenging for newer organizations. I'm involved with Code Platoon, a non-profit coding school for veterans based in Chicago, that is about to graduate its second class ("platoon"). It's a robust program, at 20 weeks, plus optional internship placement at the end to keep learning - so I think pretty ideal. Companies sponsor 80% of the tuition cost, so the students pay only $2500 out of pocket. Finding sponsor companies is inherently a limiting factor on the program though - GI Bill funding would allow more veterans to participate.
