I'm an avid supporter of people continuing their education as I am trying hard to complete my Bachelor's degree. I joined the military out of duty and because of the enticing benefits package for education. When I started getting serious and taking classes with tuition assistance, I was a bit put-off by the $4500 annual limit but I understood the financial drain education is on our already strained system.
Now though, I am very frustrated. With the new TA guidelines and requirements, people are also now limited to not only the $4500 but 16 credits taken annually as well. I have done some forecasting. My original plan kept in mind the monetary limitation. Now with my adjusted plan with the credit limitation in place, I have to push back my projected graduation by a semester or two. It could very well be three depending on what classes I take for my minor since some are only available during certain semesters.
As stated above, I understand the $4500 annual limit. I know it's trivial, but I could potentially squeeze out another class this year under the $4500 but would break the 16 mark. So I ask, why is there a credit limit as well?
