The current age cutoff is 35.

Have college? Check into commissioning opportunities.

I went in at 27 and spent 27 years defending the Republic. Would do it all over again.

If you have a graduate degree in a field the Army needs, you can join up to age 47. I’ve heard of highly experienced professionals joining even beyond age 47.

An officer’s career path is based on spending 30 years in the service, but you can retire after 20. With the new retirement system, you may still get a pension even if you don’t make it to 20 years.
