Denied
The Veteran's appeal is denied as he has utilized educational assistance under two or more benefits programs beyond the 48-month limit.
The deciding factor: The criteria for additional educational assistance beyond 48 months are not met due to the Veteran exhausting his entitlements under both Chapter 30 and Chapter 31.
