Yes the MGIB. The Post 9/11 does not give me the money it only pays for tutition. I need the money for tuition, and clep test materials and also straighterline courses. I can take 3 courses. I take two right now each semester with no issues. It is true that I do not get anywhere near the amount I would if I wanted till I was out of the Marines, but the TA is not enough to cover my expenses, and I will have my masters by the time I reach my EAS. I am not really converned with using it afterwards. I might take classes just for the hell of it to get the SGT BAH after I get out if I have any months left, but other then that I will not use it. If I am going 100% online school, with halftime course load (3 courses), and going to Excelsior(in New York City) Then I will get 1,080 a month.
