Montgomery GI Bill - Selected Reserve

GI Bill: Selected Reserve

If you're currently serving in the Selected Reserve (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard Reserve, Army National Guard, or Air National Guard), you may be eligible for education benefits under the Montgomery GI Bill - Selected Reserve (MGIB-SR), also known as Chapter 1606.

What It Covers

  • Monthly stipend while you are enrolled in an eligible program
  • Available for degree and certificate programs, flight training, and more
  • Benefits are paid directly to you, not the college

To qualify, you must:

  • Have a six-year service obligation in the Selected Reserve
  • Be actively drilling and in good standing
  • Have completed your initial active duty for training (IADT)

How to Get Started

  1. Apply online through the VA Education Benefits portal

  2. Submit your Notice of Basic Eligibility (NOBE) and Certificate of Eligibility to the Veterans Services Office at Atlantic Cape

  3. Register for courses and confirm with Financial Aid that your enrollment is certified
