Prior Service Question

Since you're going in as an E3, I wouldn't expect to go directly through C school.

Once you get to your reserve command start poking them about getting you schools. Reserves move at a muuuuuch slower pace than what you're going to be used to coming from the Active force, so be patient. It can literally take years sometimes, but in the grand scheme of your reserve career that's really nothing.

AG3 Buritica here. Not sure if you still check this but none of the above is 100% true as an AG. Because the way our job works the push you to go to C school as fast as possible, even in the reserve. The reserve component goes through a much different C school however and can be done through online courses mainly. They are just now phasing out the fast paced class down in Gulfport. At 2 years most of the AGs I work with are off to C school, with the exception of me because I chose not to reenlist as an AG at this time (stupid choice).
