They just changed it so that you can get in on a relaxed program - 38%, I think. Then you need to get it down within a year. I was surprised they accepted such a high percentage. It's a special waiver.

Yes, please be careful. If you ever get stuck and need legal help in the military, call the GI Rights Hotline 1-800-394-9544.
