DD 368 turn around time? USN Reserve to Army ROTC?

The 368 can take some time depending on the responsiveness of the command. The actual unit you are assigned to when you are requesting the release would be responsible for submitting it. However, usually Commanders are pretty flexible with ROTC cadets. I know quite a few Army Reservists who are ROTC and are SMPs. They get excused by the Commander from UTAs to perform ROTC assemblies. It may be the easier option since December is only 5 months away.

It really depends on your Naval COC since you belong to them until your properly released. I’d try the informal reaching out you mentioned to see if you can grease the skids. Weekend drlll, ROTC Field Training exercises can all make a time crunch while in Grad School for sure!

Im in the reserves so the process might be slightly different but enerally you can contact an army retention counselor to find units that are located where your moving to. Once you get their contact information you can reach out to the new commander to see if they will permit you to RST your drills there until your transfer or discharge is complete. You can also usually make up drills plus or minus 90 days. The only exception is you can't perform drills that aren't within the same fiscal year. The army has something called the simultaneous membership program where you attend drills during your rotc program and can get paid e5 pay for attendance. Hope this info helps and good luck
