The Special Forces soldier trains on a regular basis over the course of their entire career. The initial formal training program for entry into Special Forces is divided into four phases collectively known as the Special Forces Qualification Course (SFQC) or, informally, the "Q Course". The length of the Q Course changes depending on the applicant's primary job field within Special Forces and their assigned foreign language capability but will usually last between 56 to 95 weeks. Entry into the United States Army Special Forces begins with Phase I of the Q Course known as Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS).[1] Getting "Selected" at SFAS will enable a candidate to continue on to the next four phases of the Special Forces Qualification Course. If a candidate successfully completes these next four phases he will graduate as a Special Forces soldier and will generally be assigned to a 12-man Operational Detachment Alpha (ODA), commonly known as an "A team."
Special Forces Assessment and Selection (Phase I)
The basic eligibility requirements to be considered for entry into Special Forces training are:
Be a male, age 20-30.
Be a U.S. citizen. (Excepting 48 annual slots for foreign military students)
Be a high school graduate.
Score a General Technical score of 110 or higher and a combat operation score of 98 on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery.
Qualify for a secret security clearance.
Qualify and volunteer for Airborne training.
Take Defense Language Aptitude Battery or Defense Language Proficiency Tests.
Score at least 70 points on each event and overall minimum score of 229 on the Army Physical Fitness Test.
Two Ways To Become A Special Forces Operative
There are now two ways for individuals to volunteer to attend SFAS:
As an existing soldier in the US Army or Army National Guard with the Enlisted rank of E-4 (Corporal/Specialist) or higher, and for Officers the rank of O-2 (1st Lieutenant) promotable to O-3 (Captain), or existing O-3s.
The other path is that of direct entry for civilians with no military experience. Here an individual who has no prior military service or who has previously separated from military service is given the opportunity to attend SFAS. Contact Staff Sergeant Brito at (562)900-0575 to enter through the National Guard program.
Training at SFAS
Special Forces Assessment and Selection (SFAS) is the first phase of the Special Forces Qualification Course, it is 24 days of training held at Camp Mackall. It is a mentally and physically demanding course designed to see if the soldier has the twelve "Whole Man" attributes to continue in Special Forces training and to serve on an ODA: intelligence, physical fitness, motivation, trustworthiness, accountability, maturity, stability, judgment, decisiveness, teamwork, influence, and communications. Approximately sixty percent of all candidates attempting SFAS are unsuccessful.

@aaront1988 Aaront, after 7 1/2 years in the Army I always found that alot of the guys whom I would love to see wear the uniform can not because of situations like yours or medical like reasons. Unfourtnately, the ones that do get in are the ones I didn't want to see.

I shit like this before I go in to work for some slave driver, I practice 5 times a week for marksmanship and keep myself able to take on the long haul but because I cannot pass a background check I must commit my life to past crime instead of helping the country that I love just to show that I am able while it is too late. What is a background if you fuck up while you are still immature and don't think of the consequence of helping an army personal stay out of trouble.Check corners, always ADS.
