How do I get an exception to policy to join OCS with my 109 GT score got on my recent AFCT? Got 111 on the CL portion and 107 on the ST portion. I am a member of California National Guard.
Thank you.

The ACFT is not an official test and points should not be held against you at this time.
As to your GT score on your ASVAB, you will have to retake the test (after 6 months) and achieve a higher score (above 110) to be eligible for commission. I am not aware of an ETP for ASVAB when commissioning. Please see below NG references (regulations applicable are listed on websites).

Retake the AFCT and get above a 110. Easily done. Shit ton of study guides out there. GT is only the (2) Math and (2) English.

Bottom line: retake the test and make above 110. Too many applicants that meet the standard for them to grant an ETP to someone who doesn't.

Honestly ask yourself if you want the leadership that didn’t even meet minimum standards and did nothing to improve but got a waiver or do you want the guy who dug deep, studied, made an effort to excel and exceed the minimum standard, and made himself proud of the work he out in.

Study and retake ASVAB.

You don't. It's non-waiverable. You retake the test. It doesn't matter if you have every award and a letter of endorsement from the President, until you have a 110 you are not eligible to apply. That's why on the requirements, usually in bold letters, it's says "non-waiverable"
