Soldiers with ETS dates with FY15 (1 October 2014 through 30 September 2015) may begin seeing their Career Counselors to discuss reenlistment options they qualify for, provided the reenlistment date is after 1 October 2013. See your Career Counselor for individual qualifications.
NOTE: The Army's reenlistment opportunity window is static (does not change throughout year). Beginning in October, Soldiers with ETS dates within FY14 and FY15 will have the opportunity to reenlist, if otherwise qualified. The policy of requiring Soldiers to reenlist prior to 90 days from ETS (90 day window) remains in effect.

Leaders,

Due to the current fiscal challenges, the Secretary of the Army has approved the suspension of Tuition Assistance (TA) effective 1700 EST Friday, 8 Mar 13. The suspension applies to all components and will remain effect until the fiscal situation matures.

Effective 1700 EST 8 Mar 13, Soldiers will no longer be permitted to submit new requests for Tuition Assistance through the GoArmyEd portal. Soldiers currently enrolled and participating in courses approved for tuition assistance are not affected and will be allowed to complete current course(s) enrollment.

Soldiers can continue to access their GI Bill benefits, if applicable (either the Montgomery GI Bill (MGIB) or the Post 9/11 GI Bill), or use another funding sources (i.e. grants, scholarships, or Army National Guard Soldiers using state Tuition Assistance). Soldiers should be encouraged to contact their local education centers for additional information. Updated information will also be posted to www.goarmyed.com .

The Army understands the impacts of this decision and will re-assess as the fiscal situation matures.

Army Strong!

Headquarters, Department of the Army G‑3/5/7 will manage Civilian Training and Leader Development opportunities through GoArmyEd.
