Hey everybody, I am an Army veteran and currently working as a military and veteran student academic advisor at UMUC. I took a few classes while I was active and I used my post 9/11 gi bill to finish my under grad at Catholic University in DC so I have a pretty good idea of how the entire process works.


I understand finishing your degree, whether it be undergrad or grad level, can seem like a daunting task and I have heard a lot of horror stories about guys getting the short end of the stick because they didn't really know how to go about things the right way. 

So if anyone has any questions on how to get started or the most efficient way to accomplish your academic goals or anything to do with your TA/GI Bill benefits I would be more than happy to do my best to answer them for you!

What if any grants, financing, monies, tech supports are available from schools or agencies besides the VA can a disabled vet get help with past their baccalaureate degree?

check out loan forgiveness in your area. There may be programs that a disabled vet may qualify for work/job placement in lieu with financial support for previous degrees. I am checking out certain gov agencies with a 10 year forgiveness plan with education debt.

UMUC does not publish salaries of its graduates. I am interested in UMUC's graduate Data Analytics program, and would like to know if any informaiton is available about those who successfully completed the program.
