Post 9/11 GI Bill – Marine Gunnery Sergeant John David Fry Scholarship

Section 701 of the Choice Act expands the Fry Scholarship to include the surviving spouses of Service Members who died in the line of duty after September 10, 2001. Prior to this law, only children of those who died in the line of duty were eligible for this benefit. The Department of Veterans Affairs has announced that some spouses currently receiving benefits under Survivors’ and Dependents’ Educational Assistance (DEA-Chapter 35) program may now be eligible for the Fry Scholarship. A one-time irrevocable election to receive either the Fry Scholarship or DEA will be required. Speak with an Education Representative at VA by calling 1-888-442-GI Bill (888-442-4551) to discuss your options.

To learn more about this important change, please review VA’s fact sheet at http://www.benefits.va.gov/gibill/handouts_forms.asp. The application is available at http://www.vba.va.gov/pubs/forms/VBA-22-5490-ARE.pdf or by calling 1-888-GI BILL-1 (888-442-4551) to request a paper application.
