Hi! I've signed up for MYCAA but haven't used it yet. Is this program something you can do along with using the $4,000 or instead of? I got financial aid from FASFA for this coming year, so I know I can't use the MYCAA along with that, but
I would like more information on the medical admin program. -

I'm not sure I understand your question exactly. If you want, either post your email address, or you can email me at hendley.ashia@yahoo.com and I will get you in touch with the mycaa rep that helped me out so much. He will be able to answer all your questions, even help you enroll if you decide to do it :)

Hey I signed up for the MYCAA and they are paying for my online associates degree in medical assisting through Centura College. Its really easy to use I also have financial aid through FASFA as well.. The MYCAA consultant told me that I cannot use both for the same class. Since each class for my program is 5 weeks long I will be having MYCAA pay for the first class then the FASFA pay for the next and just keep going back in forth until Ive used all the MYCAA grant. I love that they give military wives an opportunity to expand their education with the military members.

You really don't need to go to school for pharmacy tech, most pharmacies will do on the job training. It varies by state I think but I got my training at my pharmacy and I'm a certified technician now :)
