Must I have time working IT or IA to switch my MOS to 25D? Is that waiverable?

I am interested in switching my mos to 25d. Which requirements are accurate? Must I have time working it or ia or not? Is that waiverable if I do? Must I be a ssg, but I might be able to find this on my own.

Not legible, however, if it calls for SSG that is not going to be wiaverable. Also, IT requirment is tied to the grade. That would not be wiaverable either.

It’s all accurate. You must be a SSG or SGT(P) to apply. It’s an application MOS, meaning you apply and if they like what they see, they’ll accept you. Once you’re accepted you bring that memo to your career counselor to reclass. This IS NOT and entry level IT MOS.

I went as a SGT non p, and my IT experience did get waived, as we had many other MOS apply and get accepted with only SEC+. You have to be at least an E5 to get considered

The only IT experience that I had when I submitted my packet was 60 credits towards a BS in Cyber Security and SEC+ so they will waive the IT experience. I learned quite a bit there and from others who had experience already a few said that their prior experience did not help because it was not related to all the security stuff we learned in the school house. I would recommend getting the hang of using Linux and being ready to study nearly all day every day for a 2 month period.
