    There are definitely more medical requirements you need to meet to become an infantry officer and go to all those schools but as far as color vision goes, I think it's a yes. Also, have you tried FALANT? I heard a lot of rumors about how FALANT is way easier than PIP test.

    Thanks for the reply. I talked to the admission about college transcript and they said it is recommended but not a must for prior enlisted, so I still have option. Just don't know how much it's gonna hurt. For the age part, I'm fine. I'm 19 at this moment and is going to enlist next summer.

    Thanks, guys! I just really don't have any choice due to my immigration status. I need to enlist and become a naturalized citizen first. Actually, I was thinking about enlisting Army reserve and go straight back to my college and go AROTC, but then I thought about it, and did a lot of...
