[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP -Can you answer the poster who suggested joining the military for loan forgiveness. I also think it is a great option and am interested to hear what you think.

Thanks[/quote]

Some (all?) branches don't let single parents enlist. [/quote]

Air Force accepts single parents. Policy change in 2013. Not sure about others. [/quote]

Pp here adding on - just remembered that my friend, a single mom, joined the navy reserve last year as a single parent. [/quote]

What happens if she gets deployed? It does not sound like there is a father involvement or that OP has any family support at all.[/quote]

When I was dating an Army officer seven years ago, if you had dependents and no plan for who would take care of them, you did not deploy, even if your unit did. You stayed home (I think it was called rear detachment), and managed things that needed to be done at your home post. This was not looked highly upon, but it was an option. If OP was a military nurse, she would probably continue to work in the infirmary on post.

I never asked about letting single mothers join though.[/quote]
