On to level 4

You could take Squadron Officer School from ECI, AFIADL, AU A4/6. Self study with electronic exams at a local base.

I thought about that. I have a Master's, so no problem there. There is no local base though. I would have to drive 3-4 hours to find a base. Not sure it is worth it.

AU A4/6 has a Test Control Facility (TCF) list in Excel somewhere on its site. You can search by zip code. You might be surprised.

I have a fellow SM who is looking into an alternative to RSC/SOS as well.   Since 50-17, Attach 2 plainly says that NCO Academies by correspondence also count for RSC credit (just the same as SOS by correspondence does), he's looking into whether or not ECI, err AFIADL, err AU 4/6 will allow CAP members to enroll in NCOA Distance Learning since that obviously should not require a baccalaureate degree.  Somewhere on one of the many AF web pages, there was something that said civilians in appropriate pay-grades were eligible enrollees for NCOA/DL.

Anybody else have experience trying to enroll in the NCOA/DL?

It is a really good idea, but it looks to me like CAP will need to discuss the possibility with the AFIADL folks in order to make it work.

Right now enrollment is limited to military members and federal civil servants. Ref, Page 129: http://www.au.af.mil/au/cf/au_catalog_2011-12/AU-10_Catalog_2011-2012.pdf

Lucky, I have to wait until I hit my TIG and get promoted to Major. Congrats!

My Garber posted a few months ago...I just got promoted to Captain so I still have to wait three years before I can complete level 5 at NSC.  Otherwise all my requirements are already completed.

OK, just a Bx

Also, make sure you get it before you make Major...top grade accepted are captains.

Your list is from 2009

Here is the TCF page with the updated listing

So once you make Major, AU 4/6 will not accept your application for SOS?  Only AC&SC?

That is my understanding.
