Good afternoon. I'm looking for some info about schooling opportunities for veterans. Are there any kind of these benefits?.
Sure, there are. These benefits can help you pay your tuition, pick out a school, chose a career and more.
That's cool. But, look, i'm a active national guard member. Can i still get access to those benefits?
================
I mean, there would be some kind of alternate method in any case?
Sure, no problem. Indeed, you have a choice. You can access benefits through Montgomery GI Bill Active Duty. That would be available if you served for at least 2 years on active duty and you meet all the proper requirements.
Oh, really? That sounds terrific, thanks. And what kind of requirements? I suppose all must be verified, isn't?
That's correct. May i ask if you were honorably discharged?
Yeah, of course i was.
Good. Now, Do you have a high school diploma a GED or 12 hours of college credit?
No, i don't have any of those. That's not good, isn't?
Sorry, but you must meet all the criteria to get these benefits.
================
No, no, it's okay. Um, hey i heard about something called the Post 9/11 GI Bill, that could be a solution?
Well, could be. IF you served on active duty for at least 90 days, wheter continuous or i shorter periods after September 10 2001, you may be eligible.
