Question about the VRE…I interviewed and got denied. Has anybody went through the appeal process? I am trying to use it for a masters in accounting. The rejection letter said I “qualify for suitable employment with the education and work history that I have acquired.” Is there any way I can appeal this decision and if so, do y’all have any advice on how and if I can appeal this decision?

Unfortunately many are able to pay for higher education at a loophole, but are far from the intended audience.

That being said; the only person I know that made it work after getting denied moved and reapplied - case reopened through a new case manager that was more supportive.

For a masters in accounting, you’re 100% not the target.

Not saying others haven’t used it, but I’d say others were lucky

Look up “Nic the vet” on YouTube. She may be of help, or at least you can retry your case with better odds of success.

So, I’m currently using VRE. I’m at 60% and my undergrad is in Child Development. In order to get my MSW approved I had to show that due to my disability I could not do anything with my current degree. For me, that’s true. I can’t hear in a room full of kids. My MSW allows me to become a therapist that works with children on a smaller scale.

So in other words, if you want more education, you have to show a need for the master’s based on your disability and not your personal wants. If you have a bachelors in accounting there is no need in their eyes for you to get a masters.

You CAN appeal, but it most likely won’t go in your favor.

Find out if there are any discounts for military personnel. I know UAGC gave me a discount and I didn’t pay for graduation, books or tech fees. Every bit helps. BU doesn’t give any discounts. 😑

I'm holding an offer from MakeMyTrip and another offer from OlaElectric. Ninjacart is willing to make me an offer.

There's been a delay from HRs of the companies in a similar way. How do I urge them to send me the offer letter without sounding pushy? I had reached out to some of the HRs myself. Would that be too awkward if I accept & back out their offer?
