The Montgomery Gl Bill 2. Student loan repayment 3. Part-time Income The Army Reserve Alternate Training Program is a smart way to pay for college. First, if you qualify, the Mont gomery Gl Bill can provide you with over $9,000 for current college ex penses or approved vo/tech training. Second, if you have—or obtain—a qualified student loan not in default, you may get it paid off at the rate of 15% per year or $500, whichever is greater, up to a maximum of $10,000. Selected military skills can double that maximum. Third, you can earn part-time money in college, and here’s how it works: One summer you take Basic Training, and the next summer you receive skill training at an Army school. You’ll earn over $2,000 for Basic and even more for skill training. Then you’ll attend monthly meetings at an Army Reserve unit near your college, usually one weekend a month plus two weeks a year. You’ll be paid over $118 a weekend to start. It’s worth thinking about. Give us a call: l'800-472-7192 BE ALL YOU CAN BE? ARMY RESERVE www.goarmy.com ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM COLD SYMPTOMS?
