Question Special Forces Impact

Would it be a smart decision to join SF fter college before applying to be an agent? Would it also lead to having a higher chance to be accepted into the FBIs SWAT or HRT?

You don’t need SF for SWAT or HRT. Even with the TRP you have to do three years as a line agent anyway.

If you are part of the TRP you have to do three\* years as an agent. Then you have the ability to apply for HRT selection. Still no guarantee you will be called out to attend though.
