Question regarding college degrees for Army Special Forces?

I am weighting my options once I get out of college. I am very interested in the Army Special Forces. I am just wondering, since im sure there is a waiting list, primarily as an officer, If certain degrees can get you into accepted as a candidate? Such as having an foreign language, Global Studies, Foreign affairs, Middle Eastern studies, and what ever else i missed. Would Enlisting in the 18x contract be a wise choice with A college degree (most likely Masters).

Just weighting my options.. Thanks

Since you are WEIGHING your options......You would go 18X if you wanted enlisted and not Officer.

18X info-
A recruit who enlists in the 18X Special Forces enlistment program will attend Infantry OSUT (One Station Unit Training), which combines Army Basic Training and Infantry AIT (Advanced Individual Training), all in one 17-week course.

Upon graduation, recruits attend Airborne Training at Fort Benning, GA. After "jump school," recruits attend a 4-week Special Operations Preparation Course (SOPC) at McKenna MOUT Site, Fort Benning, Georgia. Following graduation from SOPC, recruits are scheduled for the Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS) program. This is a very tough course, and has an extremely high wash-out rate. The Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS) program assesses and selects Soldiers for attendance at the Special Forces Qualification Course (SFQC). This program allows SF an opportunity to assess each Soldier's capabilities by testing his physical, emotional, and mental stamina. The SFAS also allows each Soldier the opportunity to make a meaningful and educated decision about SF and his career plan.



Officer Qualifications for SF-
(a) Be a CPT or 1LT promotable who has completed an officer basic and advance course.

(b) Have a Defense language Aptitude Battery (DLAB) score of 85 or above or a demonstrated language proficiency of 1/1 or above.

(c) Meet physical standards in AR 40-501.

(d) Be eligible for TOP SECRET clearance under AR 380-67.

(e) Be airborne qualified.

(f) Have no record of punishment under Article 15, UCMJ.
