This is the ROTC OML Model that was used in FY11 and for all you End of LDAC Commissionees this is your OML model. I hope all of you are familiar with this but I will take a minute to explain. This slide lists all the criteria that go into the Model. The numbers in green are the weighting of each of the criteria. If you add up the green numbers they will equal That is why GPA is 40% weighted 40 of There is an additional point awarded to all those that receive LDAC PLT top 5, and an additional ½ point for anyone who earns RECONDO at LDAC. Let me run thru these criteria quickly:
GPA – We discussed cumm GPA for first three years of college (includes ROTC grades)
LDAC Performance – This is score based on number of E, S, N’s you receive here at LDAC in leadership positions and attribute/skills/actions
LDAC PLT TAC Eval – this is the TAC overall LDAC evaluation
LDAC Land Nav (1st Score) – Land nav score includes written, day, and night
PMS MSIII CER OML – Score based on were PMS ranked you with fellow MS III’s on your CER
PMS Accessions OML – Score based on were PMS will rank you with those he is sending to the FY board
PMS Accession Potential Comments – Score based on combination of how LDAC Tac and PMS evaluated your potential
Training and Extracurriculars – Score based on number of training and activities you did as a Cadet/college student
Language/Culture – Score based on type and number college level forgein language course taken, whether majoring in a foreign language, studied abroad or completed rosetta stone courses
APFT – What did you score in most recent Spring, Fall and 1st score here at LDAC
Swimming - Pass/Fail on campus and here at LDAC, Good news because they don’t do swim test here at LDAC anymore you all passed
Athletic – Score based on participation in varsity, intramural or community athletics
There is one more change on the horizon which should start for all those going to the FY12 board. The Army desires to increase hard science, math and engineering degrees in the cohort. To assist in this there will be incentive points awarded next build.
Warrior Forge, Platoon Top Five = 1 point added to final OMS
RECONDO = 0.5 point added to final OMS
Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) Incentive
0.5 Incentive to ADM 3 (Math/Science) and 1.0 Incentive to ADM 4 (Engineering)

3. “TRIED, PROVEN AND READY!”
Bottom line
Only guarantee is to the Top 10%
Every branch has something to offer
All branches need QUALITY officers!
Reserve Component needs QUALITY officers!
Only limited numbers “can” be accessed Active Duty
Only limited numbers “can” receive popular branches
Accessioning is the Cadet’s Future – Treat each packet with care.
Sell the outcome until Cadets are satisfied, or work an appeal
PMS has potential to have an enormous impact upon Cadets’ level of satisfaction …..or dissatisfaction

“TRIED, PROVEN AND READY!”

9. Active Duty Accession Process
(Branching Method 1-3)
1. Branch by OML until, up to 45% of each branch’s requirements are filled
Top 10% of Active Duty (AD) OML receive their first branch choice
If the first branch preference is unavailable, the next available branch preference of the Cadet will be awarded (2nd and 3rd Choice Only)
Cadet may volunteer for the Branch for ADSO program, but not charged till after branch filled to 45%
2. Branch with an additional three-year ADSO (all after branch 45% filled)
By OML
Ensuring that no more than 55% of any one branch’s allocation are filled by the 1st half of the AD OML
3. Branch with an additional three-year ADSO from 2nd half (50%) of OML
Remaining branch allocations (up to 80%) are filled from the 2nd half of the OML
Aviation branch is filled to 100% due to AFAST and Flight Physical requirements
Step 1. Top 10% of Active Duty OML are guaranteed their first branch choice. Then branching will continue by OML until up to 50% of each branch is filled.
Example. Cadet was not a Top 10% and wants MP as their first choice.
- They will be branched MP if allocations are still available. (not filled to 50%)
- If the MP branch has already been filled to 50%, we will check if the Cadet has requested MP through the Branch for ADSO program. If they have ask for MP with an ADSO and it is available, they will be branched MP with an additional 3 yr ADSO.
- If they can not receive their first choice (no more allocations (50%), and they have not volunteered for Branch for ADSO or the ADSO allocations are filled) the Cadets second choice will be considered.
- They will be branched in their second choice if allocations are still available. (not filled to 50%)
- If the second choice has already been filled to 50%, we will check if the Cadet has requested their second choice through the Branch for ADSO program. If they have ask for it with an ADSO and it is available, they will be branched in their second choice with an additional 3 yr ADSO.
- If they can not receive their second choice (no more allocations (50%), and they have not volunteered for Branch for ADSO or the ADSO allocations are filled) the Cadets third choice will be considered as above.
- If they can not receive their third choice (no more allocations, and/or they have not volunteered for Branch for ADSO or the ADSO allocations are filled) the Cadet will NOT be branched.
Step 2. When the 50% limits are reached for each branch, branching will continue by OML, branching Cadets that have volunteered for the Branch for ADSO program up to 65% of the branch allocations from the top half of the AD OML.
Step 3. After the branch allocations are filled to 65%, the remaining allocations will be filled from the bottom half of the AD OML, in OML order with a Branch for ADSO.

12. ROTC Officer ADSO More Opportunities for More Obligation
Cadets may request to participate in 1, 2, or all 3
Cadets may be selected in up to two of the Programs
Participation in each program is in exchange for an
additional 3-year Active Duty Service Obligation (ADSO)
Branch for Service - Receive their branch of choice
Post for Service - Receive their first assignment of choice
Graduate School for Service - Attend full time, fully funded
Graduate Program
Only Cadets selected for Active Duty are eligible
Selection is based on the National OML
At time of request, Cadets must sign a contract addendum
We have said a lot about ADSO for branching, but there are other options available for graduate school and post of choice.
Remember that an ADSO is a contract addendum that you must sign by 4 October After that date an ADSO will not be considered.

Prime example is the Graduate School for ADSO program. In the two years (FY09/FY10) the Graduate School for ADSO program allocations we received (300) did not fill until we were halfway through the OML with 2 year scholarship Cadets. Priority for fill is 4 year scholars, DMGs, 3 year scholars, 2 year scholars, and non-scholarship Cadets. In FY11 filled our 300 allocations after depleting the 4 year scholars and AD Top 10% requests for Graduate School for ADSO. This year we went to non-scholarship Cadets before exhausting available Grad ADSOs.
Change in Branch ADSOs due to increased withhold for DABM, EOD program, Engineer program, Signal Corps program, and forced branch details.
7 Branch ADSO’s were removed due to detailing
in AD (5), FI (2).
1. Additional Grad School allocations may be
received after DEC 11.

Educational Delay
The Educational Delay (DL) Board is conducted prior to the Selection and Branching of Active Duty and Reserve Forces Duty.
Approximately 135 Cadets may be selected to pursue a law degree, an advanced degree that will qualify them for a commission in one of the Medical Corps branches, or a religious degree prior to entry onto active duty.
Specific information regarding each specialty is found in CC Cir
Any Educational Delay selectees who do not complete the course of instruction or are not selected for active duty accession as a JAGC, AMEDD, or CH Corps officer will fulfill their obligation through Active Duty/RFD based on the needs of the Army.
Those not selected for Educational Delay will be considered for Active Duty/RFD selection and branching with the remainder of the ROTC cohort.
Cadets must have a complete hard-copy Educational Delay
packet submitted to stand the ED Delay Board (Must have test scores)
Board consists of DA appointed officer in each specialty making
selections
If selected for ED Delay, accession to Active Duty is delayed to allow
the officer to secure advanced degree and branch in desired
professional branch after securing degrees and/or passing exams.

15. Reserve Component Selection
Reserve Component Selection Process
All Dedicated ARNG/USAR GRFD holders awarded “ARNG/USAR” and removed from consideration
Simultaneous Membership Program Cadets requesting the component they are currently serving in receive that component and removed from consideration
By OML Cadets awarded Component of Choice “ARNG” or “USAR” until component allocation filled.
When one Component reaches its mission/ distribution all lower on OML awarded remaining Component
All Cadets selected for Reserve Forces Duty received a component from the Selection and Branching Board. This was a three step process.
All Cadets possessing a “Dedicated ARNG” GRFD scholarship were awarded ARNG as their component and removed from the RC OML.
The remaining RC Cadets are provided Component of Choice (USAR or ARNG) by OML until one of the Components reaches its mission/ distribution.
After one component reaches its mission distribution the remaining Cadets are directed to the component that has not yet met mission/ distribution.
For this years Cohort the RC Choice Line was at 1956 on RC OML with an OMS score of % of all RC Cadets received there choice of components.

Cyber warfare is a large part of the battle today. Our network capabilities are a critical force multiplier. That makes our networks a target for hostile entities. Signal Corps needs these academic majors yesterday. This year, 50% of the active duty SC slots are for these academic majors.

18. FY12 Selection and Branching (Branch Detailing)
Army Branch Detail requirement of 449
No top 10% non-volunteer required to detail
DA Restriction of “No More Than” 4% Female to FA Branch and
30% Female to CM Branch
Volunteers considered first, board directed to distribute quality
for those forced to be detailed
Detail Branches
AD AG FI SC MI
Cadets requesting Signal Corps with the academic majors previously listed will not be detailed
Donor Branches
You must be in one of the donor branches for branch detail. The donor branches do not need a lot of LTs but they do need CPTs and MAJs. Therefore, the donor branches LOAN LTs to the detail branches. Last year, most of the detail LTs were from those who volunteered. I know if you are passionate about infantry or armor but feel you may not get those branches, put one of the donor branches as 2nd or third choice and volunteer for the branch you want. At least you have a chance of doing a first tour in that branch. Later I’ll talk about the VTIP program where you could make it permanent.
Remember the Needs of the Army. When you detail you are on loan, so the donor branch will pull you back if they have to have you.
