in order to get money for college from the guard you have to go to military college. like north ga college. and as for your GED man theyll take you without as long as you score good on your asvab the army will send you to south carolina and you can take it there. or if you really want it tell the recruiter you want to take the test and go to dekalb technical college. they offer the testing once a week. i got my results back in a month and best of all the army covered the 100 bucks to take it.
