Above 20 college credits and joining the air force?

Question

I have 22 college credits, and i'm thinking about joining the air force what rank would i get when i come out of tech school? does that make me an E1?

Answer 1

Since you have 22 credit hours, you can enlist as an E-2 (the minimum is 20).  If you had 45, you could enlit as an E-3. You will be paid as an E-2 the minute you start Basic.  You don't sew the rank on until after Basic (everyone is an E-1 in Basic)
