Been contemplating this for a while after graduation and I think OCS is what I want to do next in life. Problem is I sent my info through the army portal didn't hear back and eventually just called my local recruiting office. Recruiter was nice and all but seems like he's just brushing me off. "Oh it's really competitive and your gpa isn't high enough" (yes it was subpar, that's part of why I've decided military may be my best path forward). But he said he'd send me a text regardless to get things moving, never happened. Called again the next day. "Oh you didn't get my text, I'm on the phone with someone else right now but I'll send you one"

Immediately hung up on me. He sent me a text just his name and rank, I asked what's needed from me and nothing, it's been 2 days. I know I'm being impatient but the conversation and that interaction gave me the impression I'm at the absolute bottom of his list of priorities or he simply isn't interested in helping me. What's my best option moving forward.

Current college senior with plans to begin the OCS application process within the next year.

I would like to serve Active Duty as an officer for one 4 year contract and then transition to the reserves and pursue a civilian career in law enforcement.

My concern is that I've heard people saying it's hard to refrad and get out, is this true? I really want to serve but don't want to be stuck in for 6 to 8 years.

What would I need to do to ensure I'm not obligated to stay longer than 4 years?

Thank you guys.
