Chances of getting into RASP

Post by Benj »

Hello, everyone. Hope everyone is having a good holiday.

My question is, what are the chances of getting into RASP without it in my contract, and, what steps should I take?

I had Option 40 in my contract, but lost it because my current financial situation is less than optimal for a clearance. I also lost out on airborne because of my contract being reworked when the clearance was denied.

Long story short, I'm going to get everything straight after AIT and Airborne, if I'm able to volunteer. Already took the physical, which I was told will give me a better chance at being selected if slots are open.

Just looking for some clearer input, as I always see one guy say "if you want it, you can get it" while others say "good luck getting in before your contract is up". Just looking for a little inside info on what to expect. I know the military is downsizing, which may put a hamper in things.

Thanks,
Ben

Plenty of posts here cover that very topic. Suggest you read more and post less.
