All guidance counselors need to take a look at this presentation. There is a lot of money available for students to attend college. I know counselors' jobs are impossible and this presentation will assist them with answers for students who want to attend college, but cannot afford college. Questions? Contact Spc. Darryl Stott at 317-938-0497 or darryl.stott@us.army.mil

the equivalent of the cost of 100% tuition to a State College.

4.  In addition to paying students’ college tuition, the INARNG
will send students a monthly allowance of up to $333 for
expenses - about $11,000 over a three-year period. This
money is sent DIRECTLY to the students (not to the school) to
spend on books, supplies-or anything they want

22.  Your child can serve while they are in school
◦ The commitment is only one weekend a month plus two
weeks of training in the summer. This can begin at age 17.
 The Guard gives Soldiers an opportunity to network
and earn benefits

discount shopping privileges on base, VA home loans, and
much more.
 Most Guard training and deployments occur near
home
◦ Most weekend training takes place with a unit close to the
Soldier’s home. And while Guard troops can be called up to
serve overseas, they’re more often mobilized to assist during
domestic emergencies or natural disasters

23. Split-Option Enlistment
A second and very popular option for high school juniors is the Split Option
Enlistment. As a junior in high school, you can enlist in the Army National Guard
and not interrupt your high school education. You start by attending basic
training the summer after your junior year. You will return home in time for
school to begin your senior year in the fall. When you return, you will train one
weekend per month with your local Army National Guard unit. The summer
following your high school graduation, you will attend advanced individual
training in the specialty you chose when you enlisted. In most cases, you will
return in time to start college in the fall. If you are at least 17 years old, you can
take advantage of the split option enlistment program.
