29JUNE2026 IWC Board

I have been on a much shorter timeline than most of you guys, but I also just want to hear something back. I didn’t even contact a recruiter until this past March.
 
Can't say he's alone lol. When I got to do my flight physical, i counted every week up to the mid 20's as well. One day we'll all look back and laugh at how much we paid attention to those numbers

I actually was about to ask the same thing and ask if anyone bothered their recruiter as of late. 🤣

The best example I have that I have given before is a board was scheduled, the date passed by a few days and this site was full of comments like "My recruiter said the board is done and results will be out" or "I called Paul Celestine and he said the board schedule hasn't changed".

The thing is that the senior member for that board had been at my district for a visit that week, I and others were with him almost the entire time so I asked and he said the board was moved and that it would be a few weeks behind. He also said the NRC processors can only provide info that is published even if they know the board is delayed and that really the only people that will know if a board is delayed are the board members.

To any lurkers here who have been through the IWC pipeline, do you know if/how international travel between FINSEL and OCS could jeopardize one's ability to qualify for security clearance? Pending selection (knock on wood), I'd like to travel abroad to Europe for leisure while I still have the chance. I was also recently invited to an American friend's wedding in Turkiye, which, given the trend in OCS matriculation dates, would probably fall during post-OCS school in Dam Neck--can I attend that? Obviously one makes personal sacrifices to serve, so I'm expecting the worst, hoping for the best.

Feel free to DM if that's the smarter, but this info may be of general interest.

I can answer this as well:

I'm assuming your TS/SCI clearance is not yet adjudicated and I am also assuming you have submitted your completed SF-86 at this point in time (which may have said you haven't been to any foreign countries in recent time iirc). During your clearance adjudication process, you will be investigated by NCIS or another similar entity and they will ask about any foreign travel and the reasons why.

Since you're not yet in the military, you shouldn't have to ask permission from anyone for leisure travel to Europe, but due to you seeking a security clearance I'd have your recruiter reach out to an SSO to verify that nothing will cause issues.

The Navy seems to be pretty relaxed as far as foreign travel goes as long as you route request chits early and don't try to go to Syria or Iraq or anything like that. But as Vrabel said, that wedding in Turkey is likely a no go. Those schools are pretty hard written for dates and won't allow leave unless it's over a longer holiday standdown (Christmas).
 
Hi everyone!
I’ve been lurking on this forum for a few months (my account wasn’t approved but I would probably just have lurked anyhow🙂). I’m also waiting for results from this board.

Up to two weeks ago I was expecting to be on the September board and was happily settled in to wait months more. Then I called my recruiter about something else and he saw I had snuck into the June board and that results would be coming within days!

Whelp… since then I’ve been much more antsy and have been checking this thread regularly. Haha. Ignorance was bliss. Good luck to y’all and thanks for all the good tidbits of info.

To be fair to my recruiter, he also clarified that results could also take weeks longer than expected. 😛
