Except as provided in subsection (b), a Reserve officer is eligible for consideration for promotion and for promotion under this subchapter if that officer is in an active status.
A Reserve officer who has been considered but not recommended for retention in an active status by a board convened under subsection 3752(a) 1 of this title is not eligible for consideration for promotion.
The Commandant* may provide that an officer may, upon the officer’s request and with the approval of the Commandant, be excluded from consideration by a selection board convened under section 3740(b) of this title to consider officers for promotion to the next higher grade.
The Commandant shall approve a request under paragraph (1) only if—
the basis for the request is to allow an officer to complete a broadening assignment, advanced education, another assignment of significant value to the Coast Guard, a career progression requirement delayed by the assignment or education, or a qualifying personal or professional circumstance, as determined by the Commandant;
the Commandant determines the exclusion from consideration is in the best interest of the Coast Guard; and
the officer has not previously failed of selection for promotion to the grade for which the officer requests the exclusion from consideration.
