Being an army spouse is hard. You must move all the time and your benefits can get lost if you have to change colleges. We need some type of aid so not only are busy during deployements thus making them easier, but we can have something in our lives also. My name is Chasity Bowling, I am a military wife. I was forced to leave college because I had to change college and my loans were already used. I had no help from the goverment. They could take my husband away from me for a year but they could not help with education.

I feel as a spouse,I should get the same benefit for education that my husband does. As a family of 4 and his income I may not be eligible for Federal Student aide next semester.I feel that it is unfair to be denied the education benefits from the military and also be ineligible for federal student aide at E6 pay.We just can't win this war unless we speak out and are heard.

My Wife is trying to accomplish her masters degree and there seems to be no assistance in funding for a graduate student. It takes $800 - $1200 a class and we dont have the funds. I want my Wife to accomplish any goals she sets, so where is the scholarships or funding for graduate students
