Question 1

What are the basic military eligibility requirements?

Accepted Answer

Requirements vary by branch but generally include: age 17–34 (varies by branch), high school diploma or GED, U.S. citizenship or permanent resident status, and minimum ASVAB AFQT score (typically 31+). The eligibility check evaluates your inputs against all 6 branch requirements simultaneously.

Question 2

What does a CONDITIONAL verdict mean?

Accepted Answer

CONDITIONAL means you meet the basic requirements but additional factors may affect eligibility — such as GED requiring additional ASVAB score minimums, or age being within the waiver window. The assessment explains the specific condition for each CONDITIONAL branch.

Question 3

Does the eligibility check cover medical or criminal history?

Accepted Answer

No. The tool covers basic age, education, and citizenship criteria only. Additional disqualifiers include criminal record, medical history, physical fitness, drug use, and financial standing. A Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) conducts the full medical and background screening.
