The VA is reimbursing, I sent mine in about 3 weeks ago and was reimbursed within two weeks. Assuming all your paperwork is straight it is a pretty painless procedure. Let me know if you have any questions.

[7:26301] According to my sources, veterans can now be reimbursed for their cisco exams with their MGIB money. I'm sending off the application for reimbursement today, and I'll post again to the list when (if) it goes through. What has me really kicking myself, I took four exams in march, and I can only find two of the score reports (y'know, the ones that say "DO NOT LOSE THIS REPORT") Supposedly, we should be able to get reimbursed for anything we've taken since March 1, 2001. Assuming this actually works, then I guess all those nights in the cold, in the rain, in the snow, etc. may have actually been worth it =) Hal Logan Network Specialist / Adjunct Faculty Computing and Engineering Technology Manatee Community College > -----Original Message----- > From: Mcfadden, Chuck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, November 19, 2001 6:52 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: All you veterans...
