I am trying to transfer units so I can reclass. They told me they can't transfer me because I don't have a security clearance and that takes 6 months to get. My issue is why can't I just transfer units and attend school while waiting for my clearance to come back?

Because you are in the Reserves and the gaining unit does not have to accept you since you are transferring so they can put prerequisites like security clearance etc. on your transfer as well your unit doesn't have to allow the transfer.

I suspect because it's possible that your clearance will be denied.

Ask your chain of command. In a normal unit you would visit your battalion s2 shop.
