For Military Spouses
#1
I did a search on the forum on this and didn't find info so here's a new thread on it.
This program is for military spouses. If eligible, there is $6000 available for certain degrees and certifications, for example Teacher's Certification, medical, etc.
Many colleges and universities are starting to take part in this.
Here's the link for program at Thomas Edison.
Thomas Edison State College/ Military Spouse Career Advancement Account Program

You can google and find out more details at your specific school.
Hope this info helps someone.

Government has approved because it is a "career without borders". Just got notification that the school I work at is approved and they are trying to workout the details now.
