In return, however, you have education benefits and GI Bill (confirm that ahead of time, I'm not confident about the differences in reserve benefits within each branch.) One more lesser known option, you can even do the US Coast Guard Pre-Commissioning Initiative (it's their version of ROTC) which pays full tuition for your degree in exchange for your service as an officer. Just throwing that out there as another idea.

As a veteran, I'm going to advocate heavily against this. I don't think joining the military solely to benefit from educational benefits (particularly with the current political climate) is the way to go. I'll leave it at that.
Don't miss out on something great just because it might also be difficult.
