Anyone successfully get waivers for dependents and age for green to gold, the active duty option?

This answer is late, but I got waivers for both back in 2016. I have three kids and I am 32 about to commission this May from the Green to Gold ADO Program.

I got the age waiver approved by ROTC BDE CDR. Will be 31 when I commission.

I became a lieutenant in the California Army National Guard in 1996 at the age of 33 years 9 months. The maximum age is 35 or a day shy of your 35th birthday in the National Guard and I believe is still 32 years 6 months in the Army Reserve so that's the work around if you can't get in an active duty and the way things were going south you will have plenty of opportunities to go active duty. Some states have 90-day OCS programs mine has like a 16-month OCS program where's done over weekends and a couple two week active duty for training in different locations and it usually is at Fort Lewis for the last 2 weeks. It's been a long time but that was how I became an officer because I didn't even consider ROTC in college. My mind was somewhere else now I'm 54 years old and hope to make Lieutenant Colonel next year. Once you get in and get your commission, you can also apply for active Guard Reserve which are full-time positions at various units all over the country. You get full-time active-duty benefits you get to go to the full-time active-duty schools and it's kind of having the best of both worlds. Let us hear what others have said or no so you can make a better decision but I would say if you're 33 and a half or so try to see if your State National Guard has a 90-day program that they could send you to. I was actually prior enlisted so you may have to go in as an enlisted person like I did as an MP and from there get in the OCS program.
