Ranks go from A-E, and then unranked is where everyone starts. You win and renew ranks by placing in USFA-approved tournaments. I won a E-classified tournament and ended up with... I think E2010 or E2009 (the numbers are just the most recently refreshed year). It expires after a few years though so I'd have to re-obtain it. It takes a few years to give from unranked to E, depending on how many tournaments you go to. I got pretty close to D once but placed 4th. After C rank it takes longer to progress because the higher-echelon tournaments are less frequent. I've beaten C-rank fencers before so at the time I was probably at a skill level around D-rank. Somewhere in my attic I think I still have some of my trophies.

I'm blind in one eye though so I don't have depth perception, which was a pretty difficult handicap but I got by. Tournaments are fun except for when you get eliminated early on and then have to sit around until it's over lol
