By Ronald L. Krannich, Ph.D., and Trudy S. Woodring
You and your family may be entitled to thousands of dollars in tax-free education benefits simply because you served your country. As you’ll discover, it’s a very generous benefit.
Through a combination of Tuition Assistance (TA) programs, the Montgomery GI Bill, or the new Post-9/11 GI Bill, you and your family could receive over $80,000 in total benefits for acquiring certificates, licenses, and on-the-job training or studying for an associate’s, bachelor’s, and master’s degree.
Under the Post-9/11 GI Bill, qualifying veterans can now receive full tuition and fees as well as a living stipend and book allowance while studying for a degree.
This practical roadmap to DoD and VA education benefits examines:
- Military education programs
- Tuition Assistance
- The Montgomery GI Bill
- The Post-9/11 GI Bill
- Military-friendly schools
- distance learning
- Eligibility and applications
- Enrollment and payments

Speaking truth about education, the authors include tips on how to get the best value in education as well as warnings about predatory for-profit education institutions that often prey on servicemembers and veterans.
