If you’re talking about separating from the military, make sure you have a really detailed and concrete plan before you get out.

If you plan on going to college, make sure you know what you want to major in first so you’re not wasting your limited GI bill. Also decide on what school(s) you’d like to go to and where you want to live. Keep in mind the GI bill only covers the cost of in-state tuition. However, if the school offers the “yellow ribbon program” then they’ll cover the additional costs for out of state students. Then apply, get accepted, and enroll in classes. Get you GI bill certificate of eligibility turned on to your college or choice too. Apply for FAFSA early because it’s first come, first serve. Look up the GI bill housing stipend rates for where you intend to live and make a realistic budget for yourself. Do all of this WAY in advance of your separation date; like a year or more if possible. It sounds overkill, but, at least in my experience, the military made me jump through a million hoops as I tried to separate. Joining was way easier than separating. I had to attend dozens of trainings, classes, meetings, etc. It seemed like every day they’d hit me with some new bullshit I had to complete before being “allowed” to separate.

Sorry for the wall of text. I know you didn’t ask for any advice, but I’ve seen too many people separating that, when I’d ask them what they’re going to do, they’d reply “move in with my mom and go back to school.” Then years later they’re still living with their mom and never actually got started with college and are working some BS minimum wage job.

Anyways, best of luck to you too! Make a plan and crush it.
