There are rules about using Vocational Rehab in conjunction with the GIBill. Generally speaking, you cannot have more than 48 total months of benefits (the GI Bill is 36 months). That said, touch base with the VA (Education dept) about how using VR might affect other benefits.

The VA's Voc Rehab program paid for my Bachelors' degree. They picked up everything. I never bought the first pencil.

I started an accelerated 3yr BSN program in September through VocRehab. They are paying for the entire program.
