Adding to this the military have always been really good about leaving out important details about that tuition. An example would be the GI Bill. One has 10 years to use that funding once they leave active duty. By the time people learn about this it is usually too late.
- rascul 4y agoThe 10 year thing isn't exactly correct, but also depends on which GI bill and when you left service. The Montgomery GI bill had the 10 year limit but I don't even know if that can be signed up for anymore. Everyone I knew of at the time converted to the post 9/11 GI bill, which has a 15 year limit. There is the possibility for an extension. Also in 2017 a bill was past removing the 15 year limit depending on when you left service. I recently was looking into this because I thought I had a 10 year limit but I apparently have five more years. I'll be looking into college enrollment pretty soon. https://www.va.gov/resources/getting-a-gi-bill-extension/ https://www.va.gov/resources/getting-a-gi-bill-extension/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forever_GI_Bill https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forever_GI_Bill
- LinuxBender 4y agoNice that the options have evolved and added options for extensions and removing some limits. I served a long time ago and vested in the Montgomery GI bill. I suppose the only thing left would be to improve communication around the limits in boot camp if they have not done so already.
