I had originally intended to apply for JAG in law school but after 2 years have decided that law was not the right choice for me. I have decided to not complete my law degree and to apply to be an officer in the Army (non-JAG). I have no loans from undergrad but have financed 2 years of law school entirely through loans. Without completing my degree, do I still qualify for any of the army’s loan foregiveness programs?

Thank you!

Are you thinking of a particular Army loan forgiveness program? 

I did some research recently and came up with the information you’ll see on this thread: http://askheatherjarvis.com/forums/viewthread/42/#80, but that is an enlisted program. 

Certainly, there are lots of military education benefits.  A lot are up front assistance with tuition, rather than loan forgiveness.  I’m happy to consider the requirements of a particular program and give you my opinion.  If you have a certain program in mind please direct my attention to it.
