What websites did you go to to find out more about your GI Bill?

Remember you only have 10 years to use it. I lost mine because of a misunderstanding

I first chose the school and program, then checked with the counselor and VA.

Al Gore hadn't been born when I got my GI Bill info === got it directly from the VA administrator at Offutt and with the liaisons at the University of Nebraska and 1st Interstate Bank.
Internet wasn't invented yet at that point -- heck, I'm not sure that Compuserve was invented yet. Schools charge $450 per SECOND to use the IBM 360 (obviously, interactive interactions didn't exist).
Digital was just getting around to inventing the VAX 11/780 and Unix and EBCDIC were the operating systems of choice. Bill Gates was still in diapers (ok, he was just leaving Haavad, but close enough for government work ...)

Skipped that and went to the education office.

I second SFC Coy. Having a pro-active school rep makes a lot of difference. Mine was amazing, especially considering she was British, not American.

That or speak to the VA rep at the county.

The Transition seminar that is required for all Marines was actually super helpful back in 2014.

i went to the state education dept over 20 years ago, and the way they told me i had to use my GI Bill,made no sense what's so ever.told me the only thing i could use it for was to pay for book's.. needless to say..more money for the Govt in a surplus that got wasted..my advice.. don't do it,document all your courses,make sure they are,and do you collage while your on active duty..

I used the eBenefits site to apply for post 9/11 GI bill, but was declined! I had joined the Army during the VEAP days and then went AGR in Florida from 89 to 2004. I did not get post 9/11 GI bill because I was called to AGR service by the Governor of Florida (with State AGR and not NGB) and not by the president. VA had sent me snippets showing me why I was disapproved for the educational benefits. Did not get any State NG educational benefits because we were AGR, just cannot win either way.

I am glad that I had gotten my bachelors degree while I was on active duty though (using TA). I was working on getting some SQL server training towards a certification, but this squashed that hope.
