OCS Application Questions

[GSE123]

I’m currently in the process of applying for OCS (And Possibly MSC-IPP). A little background: I just picked up E-6 this past March and have been in for 8 years. I already have a degree with a 3.8 GPA, but I haven’t taken the OAR yet since I’m currently deployed. I’m working now on getting interviews scheduled and medical documentation.


I’m interested in applying for SUPPO and AMDO. My main questions are:

1. Realistically, how much of the application process can I complete without having my OAR score yet?
2. I’ll likely need a TIS waiver, and possibly one for a missing math course (per the PA for SUPPO). Has anyone gone through a similar situation, and what was your experience with the waiver process?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

First and foremost, welcome to the forum! Second, the new guy/gal posts are a bit discouraged and there's tons of resources at your disposal to find the answers, including individual board threads like Supply and AMDO.

Second, leverage your CCC and Wardroom to find an officer mentor or two to advocate for you. Best of luck!
