When I first joined the Army Reserves back in April 2011 I signed up for the loan repayment program. Well the recruiter told me that the LRP of $20,000 I got on my contracted can be used after I pull a loan out after AIT but it had to be after AIT. Well after reading here are the requirements:
Soldier must have LRP guaranteed in writing in the enlistment contract
Soldier must enlist for a minimum of six years
Soldier must have a high school diploma and a score of 50 or higher on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB)
Soldier must enlist in one of the critical MOSs that qualifies for the program. (Local Army recruiters have the current list, which changes often depending on the current needs of the service.)
Loans must be made, insured, or guaranteed prior to entry on active duty.
Now on the last one please tell me they are actually talking about active duty and not considering reserves active duty because if so then I can't use that $20,000. Now I am worried I can't go to school. That is one of the main reason why I joined or can anyone steer me in the right direction to ask the right person?
