Currently waitlisted for Infantry ALC at Benning in November, I’m 2 on the waitlist. I’m hardslotted for the NG course in Annville, PA in January . My wife is due 5 days after graduation. What is the likelihood of making the cutoff for the November class in Benning? HRC is tracking my situation, I spoke with the infantry branch schools guy the other day.

Whichever course you go to, the one in PA is great. I did my ALC there and it was a good learning experience.

Your chances greatly improve if you show up on Day 0 for the course. If there is a no show, it will not be known until day 0. If the Soldier in the first waitlist spot is not present they will take you.

You will more than likely make it into the class. Someone always call out at the last minute. miss a flight or become a no show. Be sure to have all your documentation and have your APFU ready and available, you have a HT/WT done the same time you in process.
