Is it possible to get a guaranteed spot at IS "A" school when enlisting in the CG?

No. At this time there is no guaranteed "A" school for Intelligence Specialist. I do not foresee it happening anytime soon as there are plenty of people on the waiting list.
This being said, I am guessing your question was for someone coming into the CG and going right from boot camp to "A" school.
The only way to get on the list now as a non rate, is to do your time at your unit (4 mos minimum) and start the "A" school application process.

What if someone enlisted in the CGR and wanted to go IS. Would that person have to wait, or would they get a guaranteed spot?

Ecity- Your profile shows you are already an E-5. Are you asking for yourself or someone else?

Looks to me like zes2 has already answered the question though....

Well, correct me if I am wrong, but reservists are not allowed to come in as non designated non rates. So if someone was interested in becoming a reserve IS, how would they go about becoming one? Or is IS basically an active duty only rating?

Yes, I am asking these questions for someone I know who is considering joining the CG.

Have them talk to a recruiter. I was at the RIC confernce in Denver and gave them all of this information about 2 months ago. I am on the road and I do not want to WAG at this or mis quote policy.
