I’m looking at 15D, which on paper is 22 weeks (according to the list I got from my recruiter today). Would this typically qualify?

As SFC Jason Boyd has pointed out, anything 20 weeks or longer qualifies. However, you will not be able to do this from day one of AIT, you will have to wait a few weeks, typically once you transition to phase two of AIT married soldiers are given that opportunity, should they choose.

20 weeks or longer counts as a PCS length course

SFC (Join to see) Although I should ask, is that policy only for a reclass or also for those coming in out of BCT?

SPC (Join to see) you can verify it here. Any stay of 20 weeks or more is a PCS

SPC (Join to see) no, it's an Army axiom that you should live by or you'll be bamboozled by barracks lawyers. I always tell people it's not real if you can't see it in writing. It's just the messages I have access to aren't ones that you do.

SPC (Join to see) great question. In my mind, I was going to say 179 days or less is not a PCS, then I thought there were schools out there for shorter times that are PCS, i.e. Some Officer & Enlisted Professional Development Schools as well as some AIT or long reclassification schools. But SFC (Join to see) is correct since you are non-prior service you'll go to school unaccompanied. So this will not be a PCS for you, until you finish AIT & get sent to your 1st Permanent Duty Station.
