Receive money for seminary!

By joining the Army National Chaplain Candidate Program, you will get a head start on Army Chaplain training as well as all the benefits of being an Army Officer while still in seminary. You can receive up to $4,500 every year during seminary to help toward tuition costs. If you choose to do this, your obligation is for four years of service in the Army National Guard.
Your only other obligation is that you seek ordination and ecclesiastical endorsement within three years of finishing seminary and meet the Chaplain Candidate requirements.
