Swift Transportation Veteran's Scholarships being offered.

I ran across this Veterans CDL Training And Truck Driving Jobs - Swift . Has anyone had any experience with this program? Is it as legit as it sounds? According to this, an honorably discharged Veteran will get a full scholarship (queue jokes about getting what you pay for..). The normal fee these days is $6000 I believe. I'm always skeptical so just wanting to know if anyone has any actual experience with this and how did it or is it working out?

 

Thanks for the feedback. Gonna go check it out now!
-- OK. Checked it out enough to be interested and put in an application. We'll see what happens next.

 

What sad excuse for GI benefits that I had was called the VEAP program and those laughingly meager benefits (compared to previous or current GI type benefits for education) have long since been used. I was in the Air Force from 1979 to 1988.
Also, I don't think there is a community college or truck driving school within a reasonably commutable distance from where I am living.

 

Hey, I got the same answer from them!

 

I worked for the Federal Government. I was basically only trying to get registered with the VA in case something catastrophic happened (years ago my brother was in a horrendous head-on collision and if it hadn't been for the fact he was a veteran and the VA stepped up to help, I don't know what would have happened to him. He was in the hospital in traction and all manner of therapy for months afterward).
