Math is a problem (pun intended) whether it
be Algebra or Calculus. But there is a simple answer. Instead
of dropping your class or spending hours of wasted time trying
to figure out what is going on, ask as many questions as you
need to your own tutor and the GI Bill will cover the tutorial
assistance.
If you are receiving any form of GI Bill, you
will be reimbursed up to $100/mo for the cost of hiring a
personal tutor. For most students, this more than enough
covers an entire month's worth of questions because the cost
is only $0.29 cents per minute at Learn Without Limits.
The VA tutoring program allows you to choose
your own tutor. At Learn Without Limits, you can choose your
own favorite tutors from over a 100 qualified teachers. This
gives you the advantage of picking an individual in whom you
have confidence. Your learning becomes a much more personal,
one-on-one experience that finally allows you to master
difficult math concepts.
To be eligible for the GI Bill tutorial
assistance, the tutoring must be for a class in which you are
currently enrolled. All Learn Without Limits tutors are highly
qualified and meet the requirements set by the VA. Learn
Without Limits will pre-fill VA form 22-1990T for you for your
reimbursement.
Additional eligibility requirement include
that the course must be necessary for the completion of your
approved program. You must also be training at one-half time
or more in a post-secondary program at an educational
institution.
You may collect up to a total of $600 without
affecting your entitlement with a total maximum benefit of
$1,200. The tutorial assistance you get will be in addition to
your regular monthly education benefits for going to school.
For payments beyond $600, the VA figures your entitlement
charge by dividing the amount they paid beyond $600 by your
full-time rate for schooling.
To apply, stop in at your Student Veteran
Services before you start to complete the application process
and answer any questions you may have. To see if you are
eligible for tutorial assistance, you must contact your School
Certifying Official - this official may be located in one of
the following offices: Financial Aid, Veterans Affairs,
Student Affairs, or another office. You must complete
application form 22-1990t which can be found here filled in
for the tutor certification part from Learn Without Limits.
You will need to have your School Certifying Official also
sign the form. When the form is complete, please mail it to
the Regional Processing Office that serves the state in which
your school is located. |
