How do you use tuition assistance in the reserves?

I'm already accepted into a Master of Science online program that starts in 3 weeks. I applied for tuition assistance on GoArmyEd, and all the information about my school, program, etc. populated into my profile. Where do I go from here? My college already has my tuition costs in my billing, and they're currently waiting for me to make payment plans before the end of the year.

Everything is done on GoArmyEd. Your local Army Reserve Education Officer will approve/disapprove your academic plan request once you have everything submitted. Once that's good to go, you must apply for each course individually before the start of each semester (they recommend at least a week before start date). If you are even a day late, TA won't pay for the courses that semester.

You have to do it before the semester starts. I would suggest finding the TA counselor at your school. They normally work in the financial aid office.
