Here is my background:
27 right now...turn 28 in DEC 2011...obviously 29 in DEC 2012.
I'll have 9 yrs active duty, IS1(EXW/SW/AW/MTS), this OCT, and will complete my degree in FEB of 2012. Putting me at 28yrs +4 months when I apply. I currently have a GPA of 3.6+ (awaiting another 4.0 grade to post)...expecting to finish around the 3.6 GPA as I am going to take 4 classes right when I get back, and then my final 5 classes at once directly following that in order to finish my degree.
I haven't taken the ASTB yet.
I am 9 classes from completing my BA in Intelligence Operations from AMU. I have been all but stopped the last year in doing classes because of 2 back-to-back combat deployments with SEAL Team FIVE and currently with SEAL Team ONE. (SEP2010-MAY2011 w/ Team FIVE & JUN2011-NOV2011 w/ Team ONE). Otherwise I would have already completed my degree and probably submitted my OCS package by now. I did manage to max out TA and knock out 16 credits in between deployments as well as CLEP another 9.
My fall back (if I can't get a waiver and/or a non-select for NFO) is going to be Intel.
I was going off the 1420.1A which had the age waivers of 4 years for active duty for both SNA/SNFO and with the 1420.1B now it's just for SNFO and there is only a 2 year waiver available for SNA.
I will probably submit the waiver with my CO's endorsement stating the reason I am a year late applying is because of the combat deployments and both of them being in remote areas that I didn't have enough access to computers to complete any college classes. This is a rare occurance that an UNCLASS computer is not occupied right now!!!
