man I came across your video for ch. 31. today though, I jump on YouTube betting you had a video of you explaining it it and you did. You got a solid platform here and I appreciate you. Keep going the community needs you.

Hey mate! I've used mine for my undergrad in Australia at the University of Queensland and am looking at using the residual benefits for my postgrad here as well - great stuff man!

Awesome video man! One of the most helpful vet benefits channels I've found yet. While I'm researching hard on my own, would you know if chapter 31 covers study abroad costs if the foreign college is partnered with the American university you are attending? So many different answers and even my VR&E CHAP31 counselor doesn't fully know.

I’ve been looking at Europe using the VA search for schools.

Really good information. I just came across your channel and find it very informative. Can you provide any advice/information on how to go about getting your benefits re-instated after the 15 year mark due to a major illness or medical condition? Finding information on this process is turning out to be difficult. Thanks for anything you can provide.

Appreciate the information, what if the foreign school i want to attend is not in the GI comparison tool?

[BamsCam]

Great content. What about living overseas, enrolled in online classes at a US school???

Thanks for the upload Jason very helpful video! If I got my degree in Mexico (sociology) is it hard to get a job in the States? Also wondering if they would accept my credits I have my associates done, EAS in one year.

Hi, I enjoyed your video. Quick question that I cannot find an answer on. If you attend a study abroad semester, directly through a US university, does your bah housing allowance reflect that American school, or is it adjusted to the flat abroad bah allowance? I ask because if you find a stuffy abroad program thorough a schoo, say in California, vs Georgia, the bah difference would be sizable. Any help on this would be great!

Be careful with using your GI Bill abroad. Make sure the school is still enroll in the GI Bill program. If they happen to withdraw for any reason, the VA will not issue you or the school any money.

I wonder if I take only a language course. Will they cover my housing costs 🤔

How long does it take to get a program approved at a university?
