我知道你很担心你的教育费用, 我很乐意提供信息,帮助你制定相应的计划.
Firstly, as you mentioned, VA monthly payments are paid in arrears, meaning you will receive compensation for the previous month instead of the current month. So, if the semester starts on September 6th, you will receive payment for that month in mid-September or by October 1st.
同样重要的是要注意,退伍军人事务部的付款是按比例计算的, so your monthly payment will depend on the number of days you are enrolled in classes. For example, if your semester ends on May 15th, 你6月1日的支票只适用于5月的15天.
Regarding your book stipend, if you are using Post 911 GI Bill®, 在开课前,你不会收到书费. Therefore, it's recommended that you plan accordingly and purchase your required textbooks with alternative funds until you receive your book stipend.
If you have specific questions about your VA payment or you are concerned about payment delays, it's recommended that you contact the RIC VSOC Coordinator for further assistance. They will be able to provide you with more information about your payment and help address any concerns you may have.
我希望这些信息能帮助你计划你的教育费用, and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask
