Hey everyone.
I enlisted on 20100729 And got my ship date for basic and AIT
I am finishing high school this year...so I was wondering if I could opt to CHANGE my date of AIT and do a split option so I can attend the fall semester of college in 2011

My ship date for basic is 20110713
I want to do basic that summer, then attend Pre-Med school that fall.
then do AIT the next summer
I also think attending college before I got to AIT will help me immensely as i am a 68W Combat Medic.

This is another one that falls into the category of "possible", but not "likely". The state does have the ability to do this in certain circumstances, but just because you want to go to school does not necessarily mean that is one of the the reasons they'd do it. You agreed at enlistment to ship to to basic and ait together, you need to stick with what you agreed to at enlistment.

Not to be rude, attending one semester of college isn't going to make a big difference in the grand scheme of things.

For your scenario, I would apply for spring admission to the school. It happens all the time.
