Have you looked into the Green to Gold* program?<br /><br />If for some reason that doesn't work out, then you would use apply for your Post-9/11 GI Bill* benefits though the VA (there are other possible educations benefits though the VA you want to check out as well*). <br /><br />Regarding becoming an officer, you would enroll in ROTC at the college/university you attend. There is an updated list* you can check, but contact any university you're interested in attending to confirm they have an active program and if they don't, if there is a partner institution that you would take ROTC classes at.<br />--------------------------------------------------<br />* <a target="_blank" href="https://armyrotc.army.mil/green-to-gold/">https://armyrotc.army.mil/green-to-gold/</a><br />* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.va.gov/education/about-gi-bill-benefits/post-9-11/">https://www.va.gov/education/about-gi-bill-benefits/post-9-11/</a><br />* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.va.gov/education/eligibility/">https://www.va.gov/education/eligibility/</a><br />* <a target="_blank" href="https://myfuture.com/college/rotc-colleges">https://myfuture.com/college/rotc-colleges</a> <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default">

A little self-evaluation is in order, what makes you feel you will be beneficial to the service with a commission? Have you had a conversation with your OIC or any officer in your chain about their opinion on your potential for commissioned service?Response by LtCol Robert Quinter made Jul 3 at 2023 6:50 AM2023-07-03T06:50:24-04:002023-07-03T06:50:24-04:002023-07-02T12:02:01-04:00
