Other SWO options paths include Information Professional, Engineering Duty, Information Warfare (crippie) and Intelligence. The other communities really like the SWO option program since they can count on those Officers for their community health. From the SWO perspective, it's not an issue. The Officer is just like any other SWO until the 4 year point.
So it would be better sign up just for SWO only that is 4 year contract than SWO METOC option because my recruiter said that METOC is a 7 year contract due to the master degree involve. It's that true?
Haaa and thanks a lot for your answer...
SWO (METOC) option officers serve as a SWO for their first four years of service, essentially to MSR. At the 4 year mark, you will redesignate to METOC and head to Monterey (Naval Postgraduate School) to take the METOC program there. From then on, you are a METOC officer.

Does anyone know when it would be the next METOC boards?
I am a Metoc hopeful as well. Metoc boards meet once a year and mine is meeting around Dec 15. It's a pretty tough field to go straight into, so I am told. Last year they chose 2 out of 24 applicants. SWO-metoc meets most every month.
SWO Bubba.. are you in the metoc field? would love all the details from someone who is there. My recruiter told me that i would be a swo-metoc for 18 months and then redesignate to the metoc field. training is in Gulfport, Miss. I like the idea of going to Monteray much better. From what I have heard, you can get your Masters, and if you're one of the few chosen, your Phd there as well.
