How do I apply for military college grants for my spouse?

Hey everyone, my partner's recently shown an interest in going back to school, and since I'm active duty military, I was wondering if there are any scholarships or grants we could apply for. I've heard rumors about benefits for dependents/spouses, but I'm not quite sure where to start. Any tips?

Certainly, there are indeed scholarships and grants available for dependents of active duty military personnel, including spouses. Here are a few worth checking out:

- MyCAA (My Career Advancement Account) Scholarship Program: This scholarship provides up to $4,000 to military spouses pursuing licenses, certifications, or Associate degrees necessary for gainful employment in high demand, high growth portable career fields. To qualify, spouses must be married to service members on active duty in pay grades E1-E5, W1-W2, or O1-O2.

- The National Military Family Association’s Joanne Holbrook Patton Military Spouse Scholarships: This scholarship is awarded to spouses of members of the seven Uniformed Services. It can be used for a variety of educational and employment pursuits. Scholarship recipients can use the funds for professional support like residencies, clinical supervision, or business expenses and to help pay for undergraduate or graduate degrees.

- Post-9/11 GI Bill: While more commonly known for being used by veterans themselves, this benefit can also be transferred to spouses. Depending on the service members' length of service, this can cover up to 100% of tuition and fees for a state college, along with a monthly housing allowance and a stipend for books and supplies.

Remember that every scholarship or grant has its own set of eligibility requirements and application deadlines. Before applying for any scholarship or grant, make sure to read the eligibility and application guidelines carefully. This will give you the best chance of successfully securing funds for your spouse's education.
