Looking to get Rutgers EMBA as a NJ resident, however, my Post 9/11 GI Bill has expired in May 2022.

Any suggestions on how to leverage any veterans education benefits from the state?

Having gone through this and gotten an MBA from a prestigious, but not "toptier" business school, I'd recommending starting with where you want to end up and then backwards planning from there. Find out where your target firm(s) recruit from!

Look into vocational rehab. Money is the same as post-911 GI Bill. Talk to a Disabled American Veterans chapter near you. They can help you qualify.

Trust me when I say go for a higher tier school. Columbia, NYU, Cornell all have campuses close to you. I’m doing my EMBA at Ross and it’s worth the flights from DC every month. Most of the schools take the EA versus the GMAT and that’s not as hard for prep purposes

Just checking, by expire do you mean used up all eligibility? Doesn’t expire for time anymore

Welp, it looks like you are Sol after my research. Voc rehab is only option.

I applied for a job and received an offer from my client. 15k+ bump in salary, better benefits/remote work, and responsibilities will give me exposure to all areas of the organization (start up). The problem is that they’re looking to staff me as a Senior when I’m currently a Manager at DT. They said they’re flexible on title, but curious to hear how others have navigated similar situations. I would report directly to the controller and have 1-2 staff reporting to me...
