GI Bill to pay for vet school

Hello,
Is anyone planning on using a transferred GI Bill to pay for vet school? My husband would like to transfer his bill to me so I can pay for school this way. He has 6 years of service and will be reenlisting for another 4 to qualify for the 10 year required commitment. Any info or personal experiences would be appreciated. 🙂 Thank you!

Hi ADM - I am in your same shoes! From what I've heard as long as your husband is active duty he can roll his GI bill over to you. But if he leaves the military then tries to roll his GI bill over to you then he can't. Does that make sense?

I'm not 100% sure on that but I'm pretty sure. Let me know if you definitively find out!

What branch of the military is your husband in? My husband is Navy and has been in 5 years. There's one thing that worries me a little bit - having to live separately if I get into vet school. I think the chances are slim that I'll get in somewhere near enough to a base that he can get orders to. :cry: But I feel so lucky to be with someone so supportive!
