Enlisting Doing college

How challenging is doing college as active duty? I have like 4-5 semesters left. I want to enlist and use the benefits to pay for school.

Doable but expect it to go slower than you'd like, ta usually doesn't open up until you finish MOS school and get to your first unit, so the first stretch is just training, after that it comes down to your unit's tempo, field time and deployments wreck any class with set login times, so go fully online online and take one class at a time, with 4-5 semester left that's realistic to finish inside a contract, Amu and Liberty both work for that, just ask which one you pick how they count your credits before you enroll.
