I went to school back in 1999-2000. I just recently married a man in the USAF. We have 1 child and I'm on a strange work schedule, so I would like to go to school online. Are there any discounts for military spouses? Which is the best online school to use?
No dumb/rude answers please. My husband and I are both 27 yrs old and are financially stable.

I would echo dognhorse on being cautious. Many on-line schools are not accredited for general college classes. You need to make sure that your coursed will transfer to a 4 year University. I would suggest visiting your local University Guidance Counselor and have them help you locate something that would work for you and not end up being a waste of time.

There are a number of college programs specifically designed for members of the military and their dependents, and there are many other "distance learning" opportunities for all kinds of people who can't actually attend classes. I received my MA that way: I was overseas and the college was in California.
A caution: I personally would advise you to only use a distance learning program that is part of a real college that is fully accredited in the state where the campus is, not one that is only internet based. Many of the purported schools on line are either unstable or unaccredited. Or are money-sucking scams.
As for discounts for military , just ask them. Most of those that offer this benefit will say so up front. Your family or community services office on base can also steer you toward schools that offer special services and discounts to military members and dependents.

the militia won't pay for the Spouses education, you may qualify for provides or scholarships or help counting on your area, the college, and so on.. beginning Aug 2009 there is an possibility that he may be waiting to circulate you 50% of his GI invoice while you're enrolled at college. yet to qualify first and premiere he the two has to have been in longer than 10 years, or been in 6 years and reenlisting for 4 extra. The branches have not precise in the event that they're all going to honor this or not, it may rely on a number of different components.
