I am having a hard time deciding if I should go to my local state college so I can have my G.I. Bill pay for it.
Plus, if I attend at least 1 class on campus I get a monthly stipend of $1,008 a month for housing costs.
If I go the CLEP route all my tests would be out of pocket.
The thing that has me torn is that through the G.I. Bill I have 36 months of benefits. I can use that just for a Bachelors degree, or I can earn my associates out of pocket through CLEP and then use those 36 months for the rest of my bachelors + some of my master's degree.
What would you do?
