Is it possible for a former enlisted Marine Reservist to go into the Army as an Officer?

I joined the Army National Guard at age 31 and became a commissioned officer at 33 years 9 months. In case you get the run-around by the active component, consider the Army National Guard because they have the combat arms branches. Once you are commissions, you can transfer to the Army Reserve and find more positions for Captain, major and lieutenant colonel. National Guard and Army Reserve soldiers has mostly been to Iraq and Afghanistan already. In the Army Reserve, we are scraping up people from different units of all ranks to send to Kuwait for Logistics. Something to consider. There are many of us here in the Army National Guard who put in at least eight years or more and then switched over to the Army Reserve. I have been military police, armor and now civil affairs. I'm a lieutenant colonel without having company command. There are a million permutations of what you can do here but don't disregard the reserve component because even the reserve component has full-time active Guard Reserve position Nationwide and even worldwide.

Cpl D M possible, yes. What does your degree plan look like from here out? CLEP may not be possible for upper division classes. If you are just getting credit for classes you are forfeiting GPA padding against upper division classes which tend to be more challenging. Has your College capped what they'll accept for transfer and clep credit?

So by commissioning source:
USMA: no, you are already headed away from this. That ship has sailed.

ROTC: sounds like your job is the primary source of income. You would need to do two summers back to back or take less credits to get three years and go to just on summer. Yes you would have to do weekend FTXs, morning PT, and ROTC classes including leadership lab, time varies. I would still make contact with the ROTC Department at your school to see what they can help you with. They can also articulate the current age waiver policy. You will be no worse off for finding out from the source.

Active Duty Federal OCS: finish your degree, build a packet, and work with a recruiter. You have time to do this. Talk to a recruiter now so you'll be on track. Bring your 214. Two options: drop an OCS packet to come in "off the street", you'll need a degree in hand and work with a recruiter. Option 2: enlist, then apply for OCS. You may run out of time doing this, and there is no guarantee you'll be selected.

State OCS: engage a ARNG recruiter in your state. You also have time to do this.

Direct Commissioning: see if your degree aligns with a direct commission branch. It won't be Infantry. You're not guaranteed a branch anyway. Tons of people on RP are talking 70 series direct commissions in the RC.

So getting your preferred branch may not be possible. You get what you get. This article and the discussion has branch selection info on ROTC, OCS, and a little USMA. https://www.rallypoint.com/command-post/how-do-i-choose-an-army-branch-a-framework

Change your topic tags. The ranks are not very helpful. Some are the Marine equivalent ranks. Recommend the following tags: Army ROTC, Army OCS, there may be several variants. Click on the tags after you post and read the information at those tags.

Also, you need to elaborate more.soecifically, for all of us to try to help you properly, OK? What major is your bach, did you do an assocs, if so, what major for that, STEM or non-STEM field, grades, GPAs, specific course titles, exactly how much science or conscience you've done, grad school interests, other svcs you've looked at, I know you want Army, I was 3 yrs Army ROTC, then went USAF OTS, you're fortunate to have been prior enlisted, I wasn't, I took way too long to adjust to the role as a result...any flight interests? Lemme send this, then I'll try to add more...add hobbies, other interests, reading tastes, sports esp any martial arts, type of civilian work generally, any supervisory level you've done at all, even if only generally...there are many aspects I can suggest for you, also you're gonna have to do minimum a masters, part time if need be, the moment you'd commission regardless of svc, and, would you think about warrant at all? Doo a really thorough, detailed biosketch if you can, I'm on a clumsy tablet, not always the best medium for sending such suggestions...had you thought about USMC platoon leaders course (PLC), which, having been USMC, you may well have heard of? Would you want to try to do FOR for grad schiol? ROTC on full scholarship to be able to stop full time outside work? I'm not saying you'd want either, I'm just asking to get an idea, that's all, honest...any cyber interests at all? Army direct commission cyber? Navy warrant cyber, which is relatively new? Other svc direct commission programs.later on? Those are the kinds of career/educ things telling us can help us try to help you more effectively in here, I've found, honest, as I'd said, I'll try to send more that might be of interest, lemme send this for now, elaborate if you can as specifically and as detailed as possible, meanwhile, I'd be most interested to hear more, OK?
