Tuition Assistance

[LoneStarSoldier]

I applied for the Federal/State Tuition Assistance online the other day, but they have yet to receive it and send me a confirmation email on AKO. How long does it usually take for them to receive it and how long for it to kick in?

Also, I filled out the paperwork for the MGIB+Kicker (Chapter 1606) with the VA at my school but they need a degree plan and I can't get that until January 3rd. SO, assuming that I can turn it in on the 3rd and they start the process with my paperwork, how long would it take for me to see that money?

Depends on funding usually around this time of year states run out of money.

Therefore it my take sometime before everything shakes through.
