Background: So I used to search function to find a similar instance of what I am going thru and could not find any useful info. So I am applying to SNA and already took the ASTB. Last year I had a vision test done and was told I had a slight near sightedness in my eyes. I have glasses for 20/35...

Hello Everyone! I go by Saukko on here but I am a soon to be graduate of College with a B.S. in Psychology! Applied to the November board date for Aviation, and have been communicating with the other applicants for a while through that forum. Just recently received my FinSel for SNA, and my...

Hello, I am wanting to submit an OCS package with a Bachelors Degree from a foreign country. I already have my degree evaluated by an institution accredited by the Navy and this has allowed me to start working on my Master’s. I am having a hard time trying to find a clear instruction on what to...

Hey everyone! I saw that there was no thread created for this OCS date so I started a thread. I will also create an FB group and post a link here.

Anyone else applying to the CEC board (active duty/non-collegiate) in Jan 2021? I just wanted to start this thread to compare stats and to share updates. Major: Structural Engineering GPA: 3.2 FE/EIT: Pending (confident I will pass) Experience: Internships, currently work for the navy as a...

Starting the thread for this class date. The class is currently about 50% full as of today.

What's up everybody. Just thought I'd create this thread to see if anybody else was trying for the IWC Board that convenes on March 1st, 2021. I take my OAR on December 2nd so hoping to get my package complete in time for it. I graduate in December with a BS in Information Sciences and...

What's up everybody, this is my first post. My name is Dave. I'm from Philly and I'm about to graduate with a BS in Information Systems from Penn State. I've seen lot of great information on here and a ton of helpful resources and answered questions about all kinds of things. My recruiter sent...

Good morning all! Wanted to start a thread for those waiting for this board. Interesting times here, but I have a reconsideration package in for this one and was wondering who else was out there. I'll post my stats later as its early and I'm on my phone. Thanks all and best of luck to everyone!

I thought I would make this thread since there is not one already. This is the date I just received from my recruiter. Hope to hear from someone soon!

I was just wondering would have a timeline as to how long it would take you to get an OCS Class Date while you're still in college? I am graduating in May, and if I get picked up right around January/February, would it be possible for me to head to OCS a couple weeks after graduation, or am I...

I am in the process of putting together an OCS Package. I am currently enlisted as an LS 7 1/2 years in. I am at a medical command and there are no Surface Warfare Officers to conduct one of my interviews. If there is anyone who knows a SWO or is a SWO could you assist me in completing this...

Greetings! Starting this up to see if anyone else here will be submitting for this board.

It is the American dream I strive to protect even if it means death. As a leader, it is only natural to pursue something greater, and to achieve strength that will make our nation more powerful. To be amongst leaders that are part of the most elite forces in the world, which is the United States...

Hello All, Thought I would start a thread for this most recent supply board - I hope I'm doing this right. The last board took almost 8 weeks to get results, hopefully we will hear sooner than that! Does anyone know if the board met this past week? Best of luck everyone!

I don't wanna be that negative guy, but if you were to get dropped from OCS due to not meeting standards or something of that nature, do you have the option to enlist at that point?

Hey everyone. I'm about to start getting my package together for intel o and had some questions. I'm prior enlisted and have put in a package in 2017, for NFO and didnt get selected. I aged out of NFO and am now trying for Intel O and Crypto. My question is, can I reuse my interviews even though...

Hi, I am starting the process for NAVY OCS and was diagnosed with Sports endused asthma years ago. I havent used my inhailer in years and was a college athlete, is this going to be a problem for me. Is there a waiver I'm going to have to get?

Just retook the ASTB-E and here are the results: Officer Aptitude Rating (OAR): 52 Academic Qualification Rating (AQR): 7 Pilot Flight Officer Rating (PFAR): 8 Naval Flight Officer Flight Aptitude Rating (FOFAR): 7 Are these scores competitive for SNA? I'm looking at applying for the first...

As I'm probably not gonna get my US citizenship any time soon.

I applied for the September IWC board, my package was received and I was "medically cleared" to participate in the board. The board however, was subsequently cancelled and pushed to the already scheduled date of 04DEC2019 with a package due date of 18OCT2019. By that time I will have a new EVAL...

I'm an active duty E6 applying to OCS for 1810 and 1830. I completed my package and sent the PDF to officerapplications@navy.mil. In the FAQ on the Navy's OCS page it says if you do not receive a "confirmation of receipt" to send the email again and also email ocsquestions@navy.mil. I did, and...

Hey guys I've been a lurker for quite some time but today I figured I would finally post something myself. I'll start this post by saying I'm going to be frank about a lot of numbers. This is going to be a relatively lengthy post where I explain pretty much everything about my situation and ask...

Just got a really weird off the wall question. Is there a statistic selection rate for prior service? Like I know that 31 out of 72 got selected for supply during the February board, but out of that how many prior applied and got picked up. Just curious.

Hello All, I am in the process of applying to OCS and came across a great resource page. This link will allow you to see the different communities and requirements for each Officer Program. I hope this helps others as much as it has helped me...

Good morning! Just figured I’d go ahead and start this thread for the August 18th class as I haven’t seen one made yet. I was selected for SWO. Let’s crush these next 3 months so we can kick ass at OCS! Congratulations to everyone!

Hey guys. Long time reader, first post. I am completely done with my packet for SWO (56 OAR, 3.35 GPA, Marketing degree, 5+years in management). I'm only waiting for a consultation regarding my eyesight. In 2011 I attempted to enlist and was told by my recruiter, "They're not letting you in...

I’m assuming someone else out there has had this happen to them or knows what to do in my situation. My second choice SWO approved me and gave me a leave date for April 14th. My first choice INTEL won’t be posting results until the end of April. Obviously there’s a timing issues here. Do I...

Current PAO here. I commissioned as a PAO through OCS from the civilian world. I deploy quite often, but if you have questions or need help, let me know. 2018 board was cancelled. However, the community is slated to grow over the next 3 years and may be holding a board this year and future years

Hello, I started my OCS adventure August 2016. I knew I was interested in the Navy officer program but I was 250lbs so I took a year to get healthy. August 2017, I took the OAR with a 56 on the first try so the recruiter told me not to retake it. (I forgot a good deal of my math education and...

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on podcasts or audiobooks that are strictly educational and aimed towards completing OCS and also the Naval Pilot Program. I saw there were a lot of suggestions about overall improvement (money plant, art of manliness, joe rogan experience, how I...

I searched and couldn't really find a good answer to this; I attended a large state university for two years and left for personal and financial reasons, transferring to a small regional university for a semester and then local community college for the past year. I have recently transferred to...

I am a sophomore at Cornell University majoring in mechanical engineering. I plan to graduate with at least a 3.2 GPA then I will continue to do my one year's masters in Aerospace Engineering also at Cornell before applying for OCS. I've already started taking flight lessons and I am projected...

Hello all, I was part of class 10-18, (Feb 4, 2018) and went through a few days before I had a meeting with the flight surgeon. Pretty much I was NPQ'd for having 1.75 astigmatism, when 1.00 was the max standard. I remember I asked the eye doc at MEPS if my astigastigm was within standards and...

Air Warriors, I have been reading this forum for the past two or so years for information along my journey to pursue a commission and flight contract. Today I ran into what could be a show stopper and am looking for answers/advice (apologies for the novel of a description, trying to be thorough...

I would like to find the info on professional recommendations to OCS. The facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/Pers472/) seems to only have the info for March 2016 and December 2015. But I've seen people referencing more up to date stuff. Where can I find this info.
