Preguntas Frecuentes

How do Army promotion points work?

Points are tallied on the Promotion Point Worksheet (PPW). Soldiers compete within their MOS (Military Occupational Specialty). Each month, HRC publishes cutoff scores by MOS. If your total points meet or exceed the cutoff, you are promoted when a vacancy exists.

What categories earn promotion points?

Two categories: Military Training (max 340) includes ACFT score, weapons qualification, awards, and military education. Civilian Education (max 460) includes college credits, technical certifications, correspondence courses, and self-development.

How many points does a college degree give?

Associate degree: approximately 70 points. Bachelor degree: approximately 100 points. Master degree: approximately 130 points. Individual college credits earn points incrementally. Education is one of the highest-value categories for promotion points.

What ACFT score maximizes promotion points?

The ACFT contributes to the military training category. A score of 500+ typically earns near-maximum ACFT promotion points. The exact conversion table is updated periodically. A perfect 600 earns maximum ACFT-related points.

What are typical cutoff scores?

Cutoff scores vary dramatically by MOS and month. Some MOSs promote at 40 points (critical shortage), others require 798 (very competitive). Infantry (11B) and Human Resources (42A) historically have higher cutoffs due to large populations.

Can I check cutoff scores online?

Yes. Monthly cutoff scores are published on the HRC (Human Resources Command) website and widely shared on military news sites. Your S1 (personnel office) also posts current cutoff scores for your unit.
