If its anything like what I did, then, no its like an HMO. You will first have to set-up a dental appointment/sick call. They will look in your mouth and say "Yes you need teeth pulled" and then you will set-up an appointment with the oral surgeon.
You usually cant just call and say this is what I need.
If you have a delay before reporting to Pensacola, it would be easy just to knock that stuff out at the nearest military facility your at (I did all of that stuff while stashed at NROTC by Great Lakes).
After taking on board what everyone has said and speaking to a few people here at OCS..I think I'm just going to drive home and take the leave while I can before I check in at PCOLA.
I still need to get my wisdom teeth out, do BOLTC and whatever medical/administrative that needs to be completed. Who knows when they would let me go once I checked in.
Word on the street is the orders that have been written for the last couple OCS classes have report dates 3 and 4 weeks out, which will allow me to spend a few days at home.
The more I look at stuff, it seems Perdido would be the way to go as far as living situation, since it could be a bit before I class up.

Basically anywhere west of the base, off Gulf Beach is good. LOT of Ensigns/2LTs live out here.
Cool, this is probably a little too early but if you end up going to primary at Whiting you're going to be forced to live in Whiting Pines while you're there. Some people like it because of the dorm-room time atmosphere, others don't. If you're one of the people that doesn't want to live there, go out and get an "exotic" pet, they're not allowed in the Pines. If it's not a dog, cat or bird it's an exotic.

I lived in Perdido Key while I was down there, good place. I kinda got tired of the drive every morning, but it was worth it.
^--- I'd prefer to go to Corpus.
I'm getting married August 8th in PCOLA, but she's an RN and will be in San Diego for a majority of flight school before she moves in with me. This will be excellent on my BAH (no that's not why we're doing it).
So hopefully I can live in Corpus and make San Diego BAH, I'd have a pretty nice gangster roll.

Sooner, I thought they made everyone do that in Newport before they commissioned? We had 3-4 people get it done during candio phase.
^--- They don't "make" you..it's our choice. If it were CASE III or whatever where it is urgent, then you have to get your dental taken care of before your next station.
I was tempted because I have a busy billet in Candio phase and would find it comforting to be SIQ for the next few days
However, that's just wrong.

I'm pretty sure that unless you figure out some way to be a geo-bachelor, your BAH rate will follow the zip code of your duty station.
