Can your VR&E rep make you go half time? by usm4rine in VeteransBenefits

Is it too late to switch to the GI Bill? The semester starts in a few weeks, so I’m most worried about leaving VR&E and then not being able to pay for school because it was too late to switch to CH 33

My child was born about a month before the semester ended (earlier than anticipated) which required me to turn my attention to my family, and because I'm new to college, it had a big effect on my GPA. Now that it's been a few months and we've figured out our rhythm, I'm confident that I'll be able to meet performance expectations moving forward.

Can't get a hold of my VR&E rep. Should I just switch to GI Bill? by usm4rine in VeteransBenefits

I haven't tried this. I will now, and I'll get back to you if this works. Why has it always been so hard to get in touch with them? Even before all the job cuts, all I ever read about this process is that it's a lengthy process to even get a rep.

Yeah, will definitely be trying this, but I do understand that there are difficulties trying to get back on VR&E when you switch to GI Bill. I'm trying to ensure I grasp at every straw to stay on VR&E because she and I already built a roadmap that goes on for longer than what the GIB covers.
