Congrats to everyone selected. If you have any questions about ERAU PM me. I'm a mid there and if I can't help you, I'll direct you to one of our OC's!
Hello all,
First, CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL SELECTEES! I am happy to say that I am one of them I am currently on leave and my command still has not called me to inform me (as per message). Could someone tell me how commands find out if someone from within command is selected? Myself, I checked on NCP website. Also, I am in a process of applying to some colleges (expediting). Does someone have any other helpful tips for this process? Thanks!
Hi all, Congrats to those who made it. I am walking in a haze right now. I busted my butt getting the best people to interview with and have a great record but no go.
My question is to all those who applied more than once. Where to you state this? or rather how does the board know how many times you have applied? Do they keep track some how, or do you have to make sure its included in your personal statement or CO endorsement?
I am applying for CEC and the numbers don't look very good in my favor.
At the least your Command reads the same NAVADMIN that you have. Whether or not they see your name and actually contact you is an entirely different matter.
I had tens across the board for my interviews. I hand picked all the people I interviewed with. One was the West coast accessions officer for the Navy. On my Review board I had a one star admiral (who also wrote me a strong letter of recommendation), the Ops officer(Capt) as NAVFAC, and the CO of NAVFAC. These are all the cream of the crop when it comes to CEC officers in SD.
I think my biggest challenge is the numbers, if they are only picking 3-5 CEC's each year its going to be tough. I am wondering if I contact STA-21 office I will be able to find out how many CEC applicants they had in total.
So you applied only for CEC, no CORE? Another thing...those appraisal sheets matter a lot, but they have WAY more weight if the interviewers actually write a nice comment in there as well. Those 10s might seem great, but comments actually make these 10s "valid"
I agree...I had tens two years in a row and didn't get picked up.
BOOST is awesome, for the credits and the practice. It got me out of a hanful of GenEd, and geared me up for some of the shitty math. I've had a handful of NSI'ers tell me they wish they had taken BOOST for the credits. Well worth your time.
