Hello everyone,
I'm currently in the process of enlisting in the Air Guard. Got my ASVAB and going to MEPS soon. There's an opening in a nearby unit for enlisted Photojournalist (3N0X5) that I qualify for. I'm currently finishing up my senior year for my bachelor's and my recruiter says I can also apply for officer openings at the unit for Public Affairs Officer or Sexual Assault Response Coordinator (SARC) given my degree. He says it will be an advantage to the board if I enlist, because it will show that I'm dedicated to join regardless of being selected or not for officer. Overall, I'm just excited for the opportunity to serve.
My question is: I know that it depends, but how manageable/realistic would it be to hold an officer position (like PAO or SARC) while attending grad school full-time for an M.S. in Computer Science? Regardless, I intend on serving. I'm just wondering what insight folks here might have about my situation. Thanks!
