Switching MOS/Language

Hello gentleman,
Recent graduate of class 05-12 assigned 18E and Russian. I'm currently a 68W assigned to Fort Campbell and a native speaker of Arabic. I'm looking to switch to 18D and Arabic OR any related Semitic language. I spent 4 semesters of college studying MSA+, lived in Damascus for approximately 2 years and have distinct middle eastern features (I would certainly not pass for Eastern European or Slavic). I scored a 91 on my DLAB, 131 GT, 12.9 mat/read TABE and 118 GAMMA and I did verify with cadre those satisfied usual criterion for 18D.

My principle concern is that although there are MTOE requirements shouldn't there be some weight given to prior experience and existing knowledge base? I did a forum search before posting however no recent activity or POCs are listed. Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
