What is the minimum GT score required for Air Assault School?

So I have heard many different things from different people on this matter. Some say it's 100 others say it's 110. I'm tracking that it is 110 for Pathfinder school but I am asking for Air Assault School. Tried doing some research, still no definite answer. If someone could give me an answer on this I would really appreciate it thank you.

100-109 GT requires a waiver signed by an O5 or higher . 110 or higher is the standard

None that I know of but things may have changed since I was in the Army. I can't see why would a 10-day course Combat Assault Course have a General Technical requirement above the basic needs of your unit? The fact they didn't toss you out of the Army should be enough as long as you are doing your job.

The requirements for any school are in the ATRRS Course Catalog under Prerequisites.

I don't remember an ASVAB requirement for Air Assault School. If you qualified Infantry, you should be good to go. I went a long time ago, then you need to have a passing APFT, an Air Assault physical and be able to do 6 pull ups. Then it's just a matter of surviving Zero Day, which isn't easy, but shouldn't be an issue if you are in good shape. The obstacle course at Sabalauski is about #2 on my list of obstacle courses, a lot of height obstacles that require having good upper body strength.

We lost about 15% of the class on Zero Day, most of which were not Combat Arm/Infantry. Other than that, Sling Loading got the next biggest hunk recycled.

Make sure you have everything required in your pack on the forced march. You will be checked at the end and being short is an Honor Violation.

I'm in Ft Campbell and never heard of any requirements. They send everyone, it's just up to you to pass it.

Never imagined there was such a thing. If you're qualified to be in the army and stationed at Fort Campbell, then it's basically a given you'll go (at least back when I was in). My unit just made sure I could climb a rope first.
