Question

Hello, I have been trying to find information about this and there is so much contradictory information I decided to write my own post. I am 25, college graduate. When I was 16 I got arrested for burglary and theft (2 felonies). It was a huge mistake and it was an eye opening experience. It went to a neighborhood committee and then dropped with Nolle Prosse Since then I have graduated with a bachelor's degree from an accredited university and worked hard to be the best person possible. The incident happened 9 years ago and I have been making up for it ever since. I'm trying to go into army. Will this keep me from getting in? Thank you for the advice



Answer

Great question and I commend you for turning your life around. The fact that the charges were eventually dropped is a big plus but military enlistment has gotten much stricter over the past few years.

The best advice I could give you is to call or go directly to a military recruitment center and ask them. They have the most updated information.

Good luck,
