Hello everyone, I am a former enlisted Marine reservist and I am interested in going into the Army as an Active duty Officer, I want to get Infantry as my branch. I haven't spoken to a recruiter yet, but was curious If that is possible to do. I am currently 28 and in my sophomore year of school doing online since I have a full time job, I am wanting to take as many courses as I can each term and planning on taking CLEP exams every month to be able to graduate as soon as possible and get started, I'm thinking ROTC may be out of the question because of my full time job, they already complain about people taking one day off for anything but is there any Officers that have advice on trying to become an Officer in the Army? and how the process works? Thank you.

Absolutely. Get with a recruiter ASAP in order to get the paperwork prepared.

Since you are going to school online and not taking classes in a traditional school I would say finish school get your degree and go to OCS. You are getting close to the maximum age but being prior service that is pushed back I’m not sure if you can do ROTC and not be enrolled in the school that the ROTC unit is in but check with them and see if that is possible but you would have to attend the ROTC classes and labs which may interfere with your work schedule
