I’m currently a special education teacher, but I’m looking to join the military next year, hopefully as an officer. I have a bachelors (low gpa) and masters (high gpa) and 3 years teaching experience. I’m older so I’m not looking to start over complete which is why I wanted to try the officer route. I’m single with no kids so I don’t have anyone else to consider in this transition. Any information or advice on the best branch, finding the right recruiter, mental and physical preparation, etc. would be appreciated! Thank you for your time!!

Congratulations... you are taking a big step. What’s your Grad degree in? If you are a go, start running every day. Check out Adjutant (used to be at Ft. Benjamin Harrison). Public Affairs, Intelligence... there are a lot of career fields. Please let us know, this is a great career to follow.

Thank you. My grad degree is in teaching special education. I will look into Adjutant. I haven’t heard of that before. Thanks for the information!
