Paying For A College Education The Army Way
The United States Army is one of the most organizations in the country at not only promoting higher education for its members and recruits, but in assisting them to pay for it as well. They offer a number of programs to all qualified applicants whether they are an active duty soldier or in the Army reserve.
A soldier in the U.S. Army can take advantage of the Montgomery GI Bill and the Army College Fund as ways to pay for a college education. These programs offer up to $70,000 for soldiers on active duty and up to $22,000 to soldiers in the Army reserve to help pay for college.
The Army reserve is always in need of filling certain jobs at certain locations. If you qualify and take one of these jobs, you can benefit by earning more through the MGIB Kicker. Your Kicker can be $100, $200, or $350 per month if you enroll in school full time. Amounts can vary depending on job and location.
The Army ROTC Program on more than 700 campuses nationwide offers students one of the best leadership courses in America—Army ROTC Military Science and Leadership. Students learn practical experience in management and problem solving while training to become officers in the U.S. Army. Students can also compete for up to $17,000 per year in tuition scholarships, with generous textbook allowances.
In
addition you can pay off your student loans with assistance from the Army’s College Loan Repayment Program. To take advantage of this program you must enlist full time in the Army for three years or in the Army Reserve for six years. For soldiers on active duty you can qualify for up to $65,000 for college loans and soldiers in the Army reserve can get up to $20,000 for college loans.
You can even attend college classes while being in the Army or Army reserve. The options include attending one of over 1,600 community colleges and four-year universities that the Army partners with, you can also take college courses through online correspondence and you can take courses for college credit, earn certifications or further your Army training. To assist you in this regard the Army will provide the computer and you can learn through a virtual classroom.
So if you are in the Army or Army reserve get your college education the Army way. It’s easy, cheap, and certainly will be a lot of fun.
