>On paper its possible in theory during an era of low application numbers to become an officer in an obscure location with various waivers if you're lucky, but in practice the requirements to actually get hired as a P.O. are the same as military OCS.
Today, the published requirement to apply to the NYPD is 60 college credits (i.e. a two-year associate's degree). The LAPD only requires high-school graduation.
On the other hand, Army OCS requires a four-year bachelor's degree.
