So there will still be a SNA/snfo board cuz they will still be taking nfo apps. The new schedule doesn’t have any cancellations in it. It also hasn’t been released last time I looked at it

I’ve been reading through this forum. The May board is still on and they’re accepting both SNA/SNFO, right?

The only real answer to this is: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That being said, just get your application together, send it in, and hope for the best.

I believe so

I believe so

My recruiters seems to think they are only taking NFOs in May. Not clear if that's speculation or actual policy.

Well think about this, if it is true and a person wants to be a SNA but puts SNA and SNFO on their application guess what will happen, but if a person only wants SNA and only puts SNA then worst case you are pushed to the next board.

So think about what you really want to do and what you put on your application.

FWIW, I’m currently in the Flight phase of NIFE, and NFOs are given significant priority over SNAs right now…rumour is that they want more of them double anchors at the moment

I’m not sure what you are talking about so let me clarify. My recuiter said they are only selecting SNFOs in May, so it’s a SNFO only board. They will not be selecting SNA applicants until board later in the year, most likely in the Fall.

I’m not torn between SNA or SNFO. I’m just relaying what my recuiter told me.

It is because there has been no official news put out, does it make sense that they pick NFO only, sure it does, but there are recruiters that will encourage those to apply just in case. The reason they would do that is that it is not uncommon for rumors to float around on a board cancelled or whatever only to find out the rumors were false and people missed out, except those who's recruiters moved application forward as if the board was happening.

If there are recruiters who encourage people to apply "just in case" and they don't pick SNA and only SNFO then anyone that puts SNA and SNFO will be getting SNFO.

There have also been recruiters that have had applicants who only wanted SNA and then the recruiter added SNFO before submitting.

Gotcha, I understand what you are saying now.

With this rumor, would the July board be considered “fall”?

July is not fall so no.

 

[Prox]

Yeah but I haven’t heard any rumors about cancelling or pushing the July board so I’m not sure about this whole “not selecting until fall” thing. Either way rumors are just that, not much concrete info right now.
