Congrats! Hopefully there are some September OCS dates available because I'm trying to get going ASAP. What I've heard from my recruiter though is that the soonest ship dates available seem to be in October and afterwards.

I hear Rhode Island has great weather in December!? 
I had the same question. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._Navy_acronyms is helpful, though it doesn't have everything (SNFO... ? Student naval flight officer... ?).

Latest rumor is that officer prospects, who ask strangers to find the answers for them have a 42% lesser chance of getting selected.
Well, after texting my recruiter yesterday to find out status, he got back to me today to say that we'd missed the August boards (this despite previous assurances that he'd been able to push the application through...).
I'll thank MEPS for the holdup on that one—it took them 2 weeks to send him the correct records (seems that somewhere in the system someone else and I have the same name) and another week to inform him that I needed an additional—female—test.
So it goes. Is this normal ?
Signing off to wish you in the August round all the best !

Just got the call!
ProRec-Y for SNA
I have my availability as immediately and my OR told me that unless someone gets hurts or drops for either September class I’m probably looking at October 14 as when I’m going. Figured that might help someone who may be wondering what dates they can go ASAP.

After looking back through the last board thread, it took 16 days to hear back for most people, 23 May to 8 June. So, I'm counting on hearing by at least 31 August (hopefully earlier). OR said his processor checks daily and there is no word for me yet. Good luck to all those still waiting!

Oh damn man. Keep up posted.

That’s strange. You need a PQ N3M in order to make it to board. The boards won’t entertain not having one.
Looks like I was a non-select for this board. My recruiter told me he was surprised and he's getting the chief recruiter to get some feedback. Right now it looks like it was because my motivational statement talked more about being a Navy Officer rather than a Naval Aviator. I'll just have to rewrite it and apply for the next board. Congrats to everyone that was selected though.

Damn, you also got very good scores! I mean you’re suppose to be an “officer” first “aviator” second.
I didn't mention aviation once in my statement so you may want to see if anything else was an issue
