I'd like to know if anyone else out there has completely exhausted their Post 9/11 GI Bill. I used the last of mine on a course I am taking right now.
My goal is educating myself, not necessarily a degree. Any ideas out there on how to continue my studies without coming out of pocket I am all ears.

Look into vocational rehabilitation educational benefit if you are a certain % service connected disability compensation. Talk to a service officer from any veteran service organization or call [login to see] VA National Call Center for information.

There are still grants available, and scholarships. Both take some serious research though. North Carolina used to have something like the North Carolina Legislative Grant for example. They may still. I am on the same path really. I am gaining a degree for me, nobody else. I think when I have that degree I will continue to go to college, just on a much slower pace to reduce costs.

Tuition Assistance is one of the most underutilized benefits of military service across the board.
I push that knowledge and encouragement on any and every soldier I come across.

No I never did. I thought I had my whole life to use the GI Bill and found out later that you better enroll immediately as the offer expired for this Guardsman!
