If I enlist and apply to OCS (have bachelor's degree), would I just go to BCT, then OCS for 14 weeks, then back home? Recruiter said NO AIT?

ha! Money, and putting my degrees to good use!

Money won't compensate you for the headaches you'll experience. I put my degree to great use, officers manage, enlisted DO! Good luck to ya Sunshine

See this is what I've read in places, but my recruiter never mentioned the BOLC side of it... I texted him today and got no response.

Jessica Walker - Most Army recruiters don't really know too much about the Officer side of the house. Their knowledge of OCS is pretty much limited to telling you that you got Basic Training and then OCS. Once you sign the paper and get on the plane to BCT, their interest in you pretty much stops.

I find it interesting that the Army is one of the only branches that does not have dedicated Officer recruiters.

I am running into that! I am going to compare with other branches and make sure I'm not making a mistake or being uninformed! :)

The Branch Specific school mentioned above is also known as BOLC or Basic Officer Leader Course. Your recruiter is correct you won't be required to go to AIT, unless you fail OBC or BOLC.

Unfortunately, you will not simply roll over from OCS to BOLC as I did went I went through OCS on Active Duty. You'll have to come home and then get a BOLC class 6-12 months later.
