All applications are reviewed in the order that they are received. Failure to provide all application materials will result in your application being denied.
Please note that all applications must be filled out in their entirety and be legible in order to be considered. You must complete, print, and sign the OF-306,
as well as the Pre-Screening Questionnaire, then upload them along with your resume. These three documents are required in order to be considered. Please
submit only these documents unless you have prior military service, have graduated from UPTP at FLETC, documentation demonstrating current federal, state or
local law enforcement experience, or if you have federal experience necessary to meet the law enforcement retirement system age/time-in-service requirements.
In those cases your DD-214, Statement of Service, and/or SF-50(s) must also be submitted. An unofficial college transcript is also required if you are using
