Completing this step ensures you have access to financial aid (grants, scholarships, loans for your 2-year, 4-year college, or technical school).

While this is not "required" for military-interested students it is good to have completed just in case you change your plans - to keep all doors open.

B.) Evidence of Military Enlistment AND Budgeting Activity
