Do you have to join the Army and then become an officer or can you join as an officer?

Whether you are joining as a soldier or an officer, full time or as a part time Reservist, joining the Army starts with an online application.

Once you've submitted your application, you'll be guided through the process by a Recruiter or Candidate Support Manager. https://apply.army.mod.uk/how-to-join/joining-process/officer-recruitment-steps
