Which of the following is a stated eligibility requirement for the OSB?

• A. Must be available to move or deploy overseas
• B. Must be a published author
• C. Must be under 25 years old
• D. Must have a degree in science

Answer: (A)

The ability to be posted overseas is a practical requirement for officers and reflects the realities of service where postings can be abroad. Demonstrating readiness to relocate or deploy overseas shows flexibility, commitment, and preparedness to meet the demands of a career in the defence force. That is why this option is the correct stated eligibility requirement.

The other ideas aren’t typically stated eligibility criteria for the OSB. Being a published author, having a degree in science specifically, or being under a particular age (like under 25) aren’t universal prerequisites for entry. Educational requirements and age rules can vary by entry path, and none of these other specifics are generally used as a blanket eligibility criterion.
