Hi,
I am writing today as I am unsure if I have made a mistake by applying for a NCM position instead of an officer position to start. I had initially applied to be an Infantry Officer as I have a university degree, and it was something I had seen myself doing. However due to family pressures and feeling unsure about my initial decision because of it I switched to a Financial Services Administrator postion, as I also have a degree in finance. I am wondering as I have seen mixed comments about this and a lot of them saying it is a lot harder to switch from non-commisioned member to officer once you have been enrolled how tough would it be to switch to an officer later on? And would it be possible to switch to an officer position within the three year initial terms of service?
