So I’ve used up my post 911 gi bill and im trying to pursue my master’s. I enlisted in the reserves and I believes reservists are entitled to the montgomery gi bill; however, my father was also a fully disabled vet after Vietnam so that makes me eligible for the ch 35 gi bill. Am I able to use both of these benefits for my masters?

They both have limits on how long you are eligible. I believe the disability benefits should be used first.

If your Masters is in IT, just looking at your MOS. Do you know about VET TEC?

And if your Masters is in STEM related field you can get an extension on your post 9/11

You are probably referring to VA DEA. That requires you to be under 26 years old when starting to draw that money. Chapter 35 ??? of what ?
