Montgomery GI Bill庐

The Montgomery GI Bill庐 - Active Duty (MGIB-AD) is the "old" GI Bill庐 that was offered before the Post 9/11 GI Bill庐 was created. It provides a flat monthly payment (instead of a percentage) of up to 36 months of education benefits to eligible veterans. Eligible members may wish to transfer their MGIB-AD to the Post 9/11.  They must meet the criteria for the Post 9/11 GI Bill庐 and apply at . Students can only transfer once.
