If you're a veteran or are currently a member of the armed forces - thank you for your service. Seriously. This episode is dedicated to you. With that in mind, I've also gone out and found several information sources that may help you with your education goals! For Veterans: Paying for College - good overview of veterans' benefits and financial aid options GI Bill details FinAid's Veterans' Benefits page Most schools also have a page on their site for veterans' options - most of my search options were these types of pages when I was doing research. So search "your college + veterans" to find out what your college choices offer! Want more cool stuff? You can find all sorts of great tools at my Resources page. You can also get a free copy of my book, 10 Steps to Earning Awesome Grades (While Studying Less), by staying up to date with the College Info Geek newsletter.
