^^^This specifically clears up what was on my mind...
While reading through various materials, I noticed a number of things that drew my attention to the possibility of attending Ranger school. For example, in LTC Martin's book, "Get Selected for Special Forces" it incorporated memorization of the Ranger Creed as part of its preparation. Additionally, in a 20th Group Flier, it specifically says this as a requirement for Officers:
"- Ranger qualified or be willing to go to Ranger school"
It seems my suspicions were unfounded. Thanks again for taking the time. I'm going to go do PT now.
