Just a quick update:
Went to see the recruiter today, as he sounded like he was going to explain other ways of going "green to gold" - I figured I'd hear him out at the very least, but do my own homework as well.
Well, he still wanted to recommend that I enlist and go from there: I held my ground, and politely thanked him for his time and left. Got a call from him an hour later, and I will be applying for OCS and going in front of the review board on 10/05!
Thanks for all your advice and especially thank you Datalink on taking your time to talk to me!
