Psyops after USMA

I'm currently a junior in high school and will be applying to USMA. I was wondering what the chances are of becoming a Psychological Operations Officer after graduation. I'm very interested in this field and any feedback would be great.

Im in a psyops unit in the reserve. I love it! So interesting highly recommend it!

Bearcat34,
You cannot go into the Psychological Operations field immediately after West Point. At about year three as an officer (about three years after graduation), you will be able to apply for selection into this branch. There is first an application process, then a physical assessment/training process.

I hope this helps. PM me know if you have any other questions.
