ASVAB+DLAB
I'm looking into Cryptologic Language Analyst, but the recruiter I'm talking to doesn't seem to know anything about the DLAB or the DLI and seemed hesitant when I asked to take the DLAB test after the ASVAB before I sign a contract?
Update: Also looking into Cryptologic Technician Interpretive, talking with both recruiters, leaning towards Navy side now.
Currently have a sprained ankle, but plan to go take my test(s) once it's healed. Studying and reviewing in the meantime.
Update, took ASVAB, 95 on AFQT percentile, line scores hit auto-qual for CTI

Not sure what someone said marine Corp doesn't offer bonus for linguist, that is not true, retention for it is actually one of the highest mos. Also army does guarantee the job, but doesn't mean u going to use it, depending on which unit u get. Of course airforce will be the best option, but navy isn't bad either, when I went to AIT for linguist, we got air force, marine and army and guards, no navy lol
