I’m a 23 yr old new grad. Well, I’ll be one this December. I’ve majored in Business Administration from UNC-Greensboro. but realized that this job market sucks. I’m interested in going to Physical Therapy School. But, that would be another year of pre-requisite classes on top of another 2-3 for graduate school. So, I’ve got to find a way to pay for this schooling since I had a soccer scholarship that payed for most of my undergraduate. I’m not really looking for the military to be my career…just a way to help pay for school. I’ve got 16K in Student loans.
So, with all that in mind which branch offers the most in terms of continuing education benefits? Which branch is least likely to be deployed? Should I pursue being an officer or enlisted? Any info. or guidance on the subject would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

While in the AD Army as an 11B (possibly Airborne) will I be able to continue my martial arts training? I study BJJ, Judo, Boxing, and take an MMA class. When I am done with my 6 year stint in the Army I hope to go to school while fighting MMA as an Amateur to build up a rep then hopefully go pro. I plan on signing a 6 year contract for 11B (hopefully getting Airborne as well) and was wondering about my education benefits. I know about the 9/11 GI Bill and how that works but how do I get the ACF (Army College Fund) and how does that work? I would like to become a RN after the Army while also fighting in an MMA organization (I would work part time as an RN and fight as much as possible professionally.). I am going to get my BSN (Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing which takes about 5 years because of prerequisite classes to get into the BSN program) and fight as an amateur in the MMA. If I don’t go pro then I will just work as a RN while fighting amateur because I love the sport.
