A: If you attend one of Full Sail's Degree Programs (thereby making you a full time student), you may receive your GI Bill entitlement provided you contributed the required amount and were honorably discharged. Active Duty or Reservist, time served on Active duty, and whether you are the Veteran, a Survivor, or a Dependant of a Veteran are all factors that determine the amount received. Keep in mind that it usually takes 90 days for your first check to arrive.
