Abstract
This document amends the Educational Assistance Regulations pertaining to the commencing dates of awards of educational assistance for members of the Selected Reserve. These regulations are changed to provide that all commencing dates for awards or increased awards of educational assistance be on or reasonably close to the date of the first day of class. The intended effect of the amendments is to make uniform the regulations governing the dates of commencement of awards of educational assistance under the Montgomery GI Bill--Selected Reserve, both for reservists pursuing a college degree and for those enrolled in courses not leading to a college degree.
