I posted a couple of days ago about going AD and after realizing how improbable that would be I'm looking into the AGR. I leave for EBOLC in April 2019 and am already drilling with my unit as a PL.

By the time I get back to my unit I'll be about 6 months from being up for 1LT and will be looking to drop an AGR application. Is there anything I can or should do to make myself competitive or is it more or less the luck of the draw?

Also, should I wait until making 1LT to apply?

Thanks for any assistance/advice anyone can provide.

If you are in the ARNG, you and your family should donate as much money as you can afford, to the candidate with the best chance of becoming governor. As soon as he is inaugurated, knock on his office door and say in a calm, but firm voice, “You owe me motherfucket.”

I agree with CPT Snell but in the meantime you can apply for ADOS tours.
Good luck!

I'm Title 32 (ARNG) AGR. My recommendation would be to look for a TOD posting or ADOS position until you get closer to CPT. I would also attempt to become as qualified as possible. ASI schools would probably be your first step, then I would try to do CCC as a 1LT. Being USAR some of your processes are different, however, if you've got specific questions feel free to message me.
