The Veterans Administration is processing an average of 7,000 claims daily.
They say about 40,000 Iraq war veterans have returned home and now they want more eduation.
Officials say the demand is so high, that it nearly crippled the VA’s computer processing system.
The GI Bill can be applied to college or graduate studies, technical schools, flight schools and other service oriented degrees.
The VA has given out $17.2 billion worth of benefits since 2009.
