yelloownumber5, I am currently using my benefits and have been using them for almost three years now. Remember, you qualify for 36 months at 100% under these benefits.
What that means is a monthly payment of $2293.00 a month to you for attending at a 12 unit or more per semester , or at least it is for me because I live in California.
Now, if you decide to take an on-line class you will get 0$ paid to you. The VA will pay the school, but, not you.
You sacrificed a lot by serving our Country and you earned these benefits, so don't throw this money away, i'm talking $2293.00 a month, is a lot of cash.
All it takes is you going to school 3 days a week for a couple of hours a day. Take advantage of this my brother and don't let it go to waste.
As for me, I am blind from one eye, and I have a lot of other medical issues, but, I'm am taking a Criminal Justice course, and I just love all the knowledge that I am getting, most likely I
will never work in Law Enforcement , but, I will not lose the benefits that i earned for all the years I served to protect my Country.
Good Luck.
Aggie
