2.  Every year the number of cadets desiring to attend off-campus training (Airborne, Air Assault, CTLT etc.) exceeds the number of allocations.  To ensure the best qualified cadets are selected and the selection process is fair and impartial the following guidelines are established.

 

3.  Individual selection criteria:

b.       2.0 GPA or better

c.        250 or above on the APFT

4.  An order of merit list is developed as part of this policy.  All Cadets willing to participate must be prepared to attend training with short notice.  School allocations are sub-divided to schools in the battalion based on interest, enrollment percentage and meeting the criteria listed above.

 

5.  School allocations are assigned to the following military science levels:  II, I and III (camp graduates).  Some allocations are linked directly to the Warrior Forge Regiments and are not the purview of this battalion.  MS III Cadets will compete for Warrior Forge slots first and then for battalion allocations as they arise.
