I am planning on commissioning army from VMI and I was wondering how hard it is to branch in something like Finance corps. I am not too interested on branching combat arms or something like transportation, but it’d be interesting to know how competitive all of the possible career options are. Any useful information is greatly appreciated.
Many of those who do get non-combat arms branches are required to serve a first tour in Infantry, Armor, Field Artillery, or Chemical. This is called "Branch Detail". Go in with the expectation that Infantry, Armor, and Field Artillery might be acceptable branches to serve in after graduation, or think very carefully about choosing West Point ...

I have a few questions with regards to branching infantry: 1. The one thing I heard was that if you are in the top 10% you can basically choose your branch, but I was ...
Oct 6, 2019. #2. Competitiveness for placement on active duty vs reserves varies from year to year depending on the needs of the Army. So far as I know branching is always competitive based on OML.

Each branch rates Cadet as one of three categories - Most Preferred, Preferred, Least Preferred. Branching uses those inputs, class rank, and whether or not Cadet is willingness to BRADSO ...
Deciphering the nuances of army branches seems to be giving MBA admissions a lot of credit. The earlier responses about selection bias make sense to me. If you do well in your branch and your GMATs and have strong recommendations, I would think you'd be well-positioned for a top 7 school.
The Army, Navy, and Marines are all brothers in a family. Army is the oldest... Mom and Dad made all their parenting mistakes with him. The Navy is the middle son. They are explorers who left home and no one cared. The Marines are the youngest. Mom and Dad let them do whatever they wanted and they still have an inferiority complex due to their ...
