I am thinking about applying there but I am afraid that I am too old. Please advise. Thank you.


PS.
I am already an Officer in the Army Reserves and have previously served 6 years of Active Duty. I would love to study military medicine. Please no nay sayers. Thank you

Here's from the horse's mouth.

Applicants (civilian and enlisted personnel) must be between the ages of 18 and 30 by 30 June 2009. However, an applicant who has commissioned active duty time in the Armed Services may exceed the age limitation by a period equal to the time served on active duty provided the applicant has not become 36 years of age by 30 June 2009. If a civilian or military member exceeds the age limit, an age waiver may be requested.
 
And they are very liberal with the age-waivers. I got one (I think I was 34 when I got my commission, after much time as an enlisted guy), I know of one guy 2 years behind me who was around 40 when he got his.

Thank you so much! Wow, that was good information. Anyways, I spent most of my Active duty time as Enlisted. I only got commissioned as an Officer in the Army Reserves a few years ago. I just need a year of physics to complete the pre-reqs.
Anyways, thanks again.
