Also not even close to true. If you join with a BACHELORS DEGREE but do not go through a specific commissioning program (Military Academy, OCS, ROTC, or Direct Commission), you enter as an E4. You fail
Nope. If you have a college degree and join the military you are a commissioned officer. The degree can be from any college. You can have an assoicates or bachelors. It does not matter. You still are a commisoned officer.

When I was in the Army, with a bachelors and no ROTC, you would have to complete OCS to get your "butter bar" (2nd. Lt. commission). However, I haven't been in since the first gulf war, things may have changed.

Stating a wrong answer twice doesn't make it any less wrong.
Bachelors Degree + Join Military = E4
Bachelors Degree + Join Military + Score high enough GT to qualify for commissioning + Be under the age of 29 (27 for ROTC) + Complete necessary precommissioning requirements including security clearance eligibility and acceptance + not getting screened out by a review board= O1

I am not an Aggie but I appreciate what men for A&M have done in service to our Country in our time of need. In WW-2 A&M supplied more officers to our military than West Point and Annapolis combined.
My thanks, to Texas A&M.
