I have for a long time desired to serve my country in the military. I'm soon to be 27 yrs old, I'm self employed (run rental properties) and am currently in college for Law Enforcement. It will take me another year to finish my Associates degree, then I am transferring to another college where it will take me another 2 years to get my Bachelors. I'm still 3 yrs away from my Bachelors, but am toying with the idea of Law School. With state and federal tuition assitance, how much would it cover ? And for how long ?
I'm in Ohio, the Guard covers 100% for state TA, but for how long ?

Thanks for the info.

I recently finished my masters in Florida.

I used TA until it ran out. It covers a maximum amount her credit hour, around $250, and they paid no more than $1500 per term. My TA ran out three terms into a five term fiscal year with the fiscal years starting and stopping around October, November. I had to use my GI Bill for the rest, and what I could save up using the MGIB-SR (I'm in the Guard) had to be applied to what the TA wouldn't cover because it was used up. Once a new fiscal year started, I got a whole new $4500 to play with. Good luck!

Wayne, the NG tuition is different in each state. I am from Ohio and here is how it works. Oh has 100% TA, if you go to a state school it is totally free. It you got to a private or out of state school as I do, they pay the equivalent that would be paid to a state school. There is not a yearly max.

As for law school, I too am looking into this option, if you went to a state law school 100% would be covered. Akron even speaks to this on their LS website.

Good Luck

If you get a chance grab a NG Almanac it has all the benefits. I asked guys as my Unit and they did not even know the answer to my TA questions.

Thanks Ron. Would I have to use the state or the federal TA for law school ? I was told that the federal can not be used for a professional degree, maybe thats wrong.

Thanks
