Attention to All Military Wives

Are you currently in school, wanting to go back to school, or wanting to get your graduate degree? Are you a military spouse? If you answered yes, then you must check this out!

Last week, Landon's director at his daycare gave me a brochure on getting money for school. I went to the website and checked it out. I found out today that I am eligible and all I had to do was tell them the classes that I was taking in the fall and how much they are and they are paying for them! CRAZY!! Seriously, why did I not find out about this program 2 years ago. Or was it even around.

Here is what you need to do, google MyCaa. I think it is link once the results come up. I would give you the web address, but I could only get it to work if I googled. Weird, I know! Set up an account. Here is what you need to know. You need to have a plan of study. What is a plan of study? A plan of study is when you know your major and you plan out the classes you need to take in order to graduate. You will also need to know how much each class cost. This can be tedious but tough it out because it is worth it in the end. Call your academic advisor or Financial Aid office if you need assistance. That is what they are there for. Once you find out you are eligible, you click on the classes for the upcoming semester (Check to make sure the costs are correct), the dates that you will be attending these classes, and then you are done! The initial application is the hardest part!

Not all degrees are eligible. This program is for portal jobs. Don't know what a portal job is, check out the list on their websites. Also, you do not have to get a 4 year degree. I saw cosmetology on there. They will also pay for certifications and licenses! If you are interested and need help, just ask me!! Good Luck!!
