Is BOLC Attendance a Requirement for Army Reserve officers?
Yes. Officers commissioned from ROTC will be ordered to active duty for training (ADT) for the length of time required to complete BOLC plus travel time. You do not have up to 36 months to attend BOLC as a Reserve Duty officer. IAW with AR 140-9, you are required to attend BOLC within one-year of date of commission-the exception is for RC officers attending BOLC after one-year due to a lack of available BOLC seats. Failure to attend BOLC may result in adverse personnel action and recoupment of scholarship funds.
