Do we have any say where we attend primary?

There's not much about you on your profile. What branch are you? Are you married?
Every (I'm sure there are exceptions somewhere) married Navy guy goes to Whiting. A few single guys end up in the mix, depending on what's available, or extenuating circumstances. If you're single, you'll likely end up going to Corpus, assuming you dodge the Vance bullet.
Stone...the biggest 'no no' on AW is to ask for odds/percentages (for anything)! Any questions of this type that you may have, has been asked before & answered if the stats were available. So do some diligent research prior to posing your questions.
In addition, the whole military is presently undergoing 'change you can believe in'...DOWNSIZING! Stats fom last year/month/week are more than likely invalid today.
*As eas7888 mentioned, a minimum bit of info in your profile would help in responding to your questions.

With the likelihood of being sent to Corpus for Primary (being single and what not), is it smarter to live in the BOQ for API, or is it easy enough to get out of a lease that I could swing living off base?(I searched, but couldn't find anything on it)
Florida has a "military clause" law, so regardless of the lease containing anything about it or not, if he gets orders to Corpus the landlord has to let him out.

Technically, it's part of the SSCRA so the law is on your side regardless of what state you're in (and regardless if it's in your lease). That said, having it in your lease makes it easier when there's a dispute.
You can put Corpus on your dream sheet but that really has no basis on where you will actually go. Some weeks they say all single guys are going to Corpus, sometimes they send single guys to Whiting, sometimes married guys go to Corpus. Just depends on what is going on the week you class up.
OP: Here's the single most reliable way to find the answer to your question.
I will bring this thread down, baby. I will bring it down to Chinatown.

In my class of 40 here's the breakdown, we're graduating API on Wednesday.
~13 Corpus. This includes Marines.
2 Vance
All FOs get Pensacola...but you knew that already
This week, 5-6 single Navy dudes are headed to NASWF for primary. The numbers are growing from week to week right now as weather improves and more IPs get qual'd for the T-6.
Provided you didn't squander ALL of your money while you were here, you shouldn't have a problem getting a place in Corpus. Living with a roommate helps greatly--got a place down there this week for $1025. Split in half is $500. Pretty standard really...

I asked for Corpus and got it, but then again, most guys at that point just wanted to stay in their leases in the Whiting area. I was living on an air mattress in a mansion with a pool and a tiki bar on the NASP back gate with a bunch of SNFO's I knew from ROTC, so I had nothing to lose.
