SGT Private RallyPoint Member 6415606 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am promotable so i know that I have 10 years for RCP but I know i will make the next rank after school no problem. I have no problem on reenlisting for 89D but i have to wait for the reclassification process first right? My career counselor gave me two options &quot;reenlist to go somewhere else to try to reclass there or try for a waiver but will most likely will get denied where I am at right now.&quot; This is holding me up from getting a class date. 2020-10-18T22:13:11-04:00 SGT Private RallyPoint Member 6415606

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I believe the issue you are running into is the fact that you can not reclass into 89D with promotable status. From my understanding and I believe <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="148812" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/148812-79s-career-counselor-usaraf-hq-usaraf-setaf">SFC Private RallyPoint Member</a> can confirm this but I believe you can not be above E4 to reclass into 89D

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You can expect that you&#39;ll need to reenlist 5 years for EOD. The school is about a year and you&#39;ll owe three years after graduating, plus the time till you start your training. Five years.<br /><br />If you currently have more than five years in the Army then you will exceed your RCP. In order to reenlist past your RCP point you will need an RCP Exception to Policy. Your request will need a 4187 signed through your Brigade Commander.<br /><br />Your Career Counselor is probably new. There is no waiver, waivers and ETPs are different. As long as your BDE CDR signs your 4187, and you&#39;re not something like an 8 year E4, HRC will grant the RCP ETP for an E4 going into a SMAPP MOS. Your 4187 needs to say you are requesting SMAPP as well. If they turn you away, go to the BDE Senior Career Counselor who has more experience in these situations.
