Does Anyone have the regulation as to how long an ECP LT can wait to go to BOLC after graduation from their 4 year college or university?

I had back surgery last August and was originally scheduled for 9 August to go but am still have some issues with my back and my unit is try to get me a permanent profile. So my new report date is 29 November and I graduated 12 December 2015. I pinned on 1LT after 2 years by regulation.

It's up to the individual state usually. In Alabama they now require LTs to wait until after their 4-yr degree.

As long as you have a reserved seat, you should be good.

I think you will be fine. The ECP is such a unicorn that no one understands it well enough to give you a hard time.

Correct me if I am wrong, but in order to pin on 1LT, you must complete BOLC first.

I took 4 more years after I received my commission. I was ROTC scholarship and was required to go on active duty. I was in a professional program. Two years after graduation is the norm, and an extra year to three is easy to get. I had to get a bunch of references to get the extra year. I came on active duty a a senior 1LT.

LT Hamilton, see the following link:

Review PPOM 13-006. It lays out the guidelines for promotion from 2LT to 1LT, and covers the time requirements relative to BOLC completion.
