How long is 15D AIT?

2019-06-30T19:19:54-04:00

I have my MEPS orders for Fort Eustis and they say 24 weeks and 3 days. I’ve seen online from different military websites that AIT is 18 weeks, 22 weeks 3 days and 23 weeks and 3 days. Can anyone tell me what it really is?

PFC,

Are you saying you'd rather believe some Unofficial "military website" over the Army? Is there some issue with the length of your training? I've been to AIT at Eustis as a 15G and unless things have drastically changed you'll have a great time, enjoy it.

Your MEPS orders would be most accurate as AIT length, sometimes it's slightly off by a day or two. Never trust military sites, not even the goarmy website, things can change and your orders would tell you accurately how long is BCT/OSUT/AIT.

Ait is different for each MOS and may be shortened for a variety of reasons, During the build up for a mass invasions in D day it may be eliminated. Do your planning based on what MEPS tells you but always in the military be flexible you are not in charge.

Typically, what you have on your orders will be the most current information. Be aware, however that there is a possibility that upon your class start date, if there aren't enough personnel to fill a class, you will be in holdunder until there is. This could be from a couple weeks to a couple month wait.

Better late than never. It is 103 duty days from class start to graduation. Soldiers do PCS their families here, some.
