Looking at the new version of the Post 9/11 GI Bill. And seeing the following,
If you are enrolled in any degree program that consists of flight training at a public Institution of Higher Learning you can be reimbursed up to the resident in-state cost of the training and will be eligible to receive your housing allowance and the books & supplies stipend.
If you are enrolled in any degree program that consists of flight training at a private Institution of Higher Learning you can be reimbursed up to the full cost of the training or $17,500 per academic year, whichever is less. You will also be eligible to receive your housing allowance and the books & supplies stipend.
I'm looking for a school that would fit the bill for this part of the program. I've been going to a local Community College and am about done with my AS. Like "everybody else" My dream is the Airline Pilot gig. But I would be very happy in any job that allowed me to fly. Aviation-wise I'm starting from a slate of no License. Though I took lessons way way back... when I was in High School, mowing lawns so I could fly an hour a month. Managed to get about 40 hours logged, but had my storage disappear on me when I was deployed one year and with it went my logbook.
Does anybody have some guidance to offer on the schools available. I know the key for getting the housing allowance is going to be a physical campus to attend classes at. If I needed to I could go anywhere to do it, but near Houston or in Texas would be best. I've been looking at one school in Waco, I wrote them a message but I'm still waiting a reply.
Thanks for your help,
