I am blown away that you did not get selected, I am sorry to hear that... Good luck with intel, you deserve to make it!

Thank you Ronin I'm mentally preparing for another speed bump however. Time to become reacquainted with Khan Academy I guess haha.

Haven't heard anything yet. Does anyone else feel like they play a bit of eenie meenie miney mo for selection? It doesn't all seem to make sense.

I was under the impression that all the NRD's have access to the results at the same time. I guess that's not the case. Hopefully we'll hear soon.

I also haven't tried contacting my recruiter, so he might have the info and just hasn't called.

FWIW my OR said this board was abnormally competitive for a SWO board

If the numbers thrown out were correct a 60% selection rate is really good, very generous for selections.

Much more generous than the April 2016 Board I was a non-select for, I think that one was around 39%.

Exact numbers:

119 selected
73 non-select
13 tabled to next board

58% selection rate if you include the 13 tabled.

Curious how the fleet applicants stats were, what the selection rate was

I work at NRD Philly on the enlisted side. As of this afternoon, the OR's did not have results. Hopefully you hear something tomorrow because we have a four day weekend coming up.

pretty good either way, I would exclude the tabled since technically they aren't a no, but really 58 or 62 percent is pretty close.

Results can be found on the NRC sharepoint, in particular N3/N31 under GENOFF Programs. They've been posted for about a day and a half now.

Hello, first timer here. I applied for: 1) SWO with Intel Option(June 2017 Board) 2) SWO (May 2017 Board). My recruiter informed me that I was not selected for this board and would have to wait and see what the June Board says. My questions are: Why wasn't I selected(Oar,record,or because Swo was my second option, all three)? And what happens it I don't get selected for either board. Thank you for your responses.

Mini BIO:
OAR: 55
GPA: 3.4
DEGREE: International and foreign affairs
Age: 28

There isn't such thing as SWO-Intel, only SWO-IP and SWO-CW options. Don't know where the miscommunication came from there. Also, the DUI pretty much seals your fate getting picked up. The way I explain to applicants, if I, an already-commissioned officer got a DUI my career would be over. The boards take it the same way for someone applying to be an officer. Ditto with other serious misdemeanor offenses.

I think the only designator I have seen pick people with a DUI is for SNA
