Each year, the US Army awards deserving Soldiers the opportunity to transition from the enlisted ranks into the officer corps while earning a bachelor's degree through the Green to Gold Program. The Active Duty option allows Soldiers the opportunity to remain on Active Duty while finishing their remaining two years towards a bachelor's degree while using tuition assistance or Montgomery GI Bill benefits to fund their education. While the window to apply for most Green to Gold options has closed this year, soldiers can still apply by April 1 for the Division Commander's Hip Pocket Scholarship. Soldiers interested in Green to Gold can get more information at their local education center or by visiting the Army's Green to Gold website.
