I am prior service USMC infantry going over to ARNG aviation in hopes of being selected for WOFT. Due to my graduate school schedule and internships I cannot attend AIT for the MOS I am going in to right away. I will technically be an 11B in a 15T slot. How long can I remain in the unit non MOSQ for 15T? I am hoping to be selected for aviation prior to needing to attend MOS school for 15T.

In the Army Reserve you are supposed to attend training to become MOS Q within 24 months. There are exceptions to every rule, I am sure you will be fine. The Reserve Component as a general rule understands that there are other obligations outside of military service (in a part time status) that will take priority over their military commitment.

Thank you SGM. The Marine Corps reserve often seemed to overlook civilian obligations. This 24 months seems to be what I'm hearing across the board. Do you know if I will still be eligible to attend annual training with the Guard unit despite not being MOS Q for them? I am hoping to get selected for WOFT prior to attending MOS school for 15T, but I would like to learn as much as I can about the airframe, as well as the unit, in the year or more before a school slot becomes available for flight training.

In the Reserve, as long as you have an MOS, you would be eligible to attend AT. The Commander makes the call and I do believe that you your 0311 training does qualify for award of the MOS 11B,
