I think they at least pay for it. Have some friends down here in Pensacola who have done that recently
Yea if you move yourself.
I met with my recruiter yesterday and learned a few things. First of all, at the previous OCS class, there was a 3 day turnaround between OCS graduation and check-in at Pensacola for the SNA/SNFO folks.
It might be a good idea to think ahead and pack some stuff up before leaving for OCS.
Lastly, I was told that this board had around a 50% acceptance rate for SNA and 75% acceptance rate for NFO.

Yes the Navy will move you or you can move your self and get paid or do a partial move and move some of yourself and have the navy move you. Here in the website for more facts, https://www.militaryonesource.mil/moving-pcs/moving-personal-property/

The nearest NROTC is too far from home with no cross over programs. Unless NROTC has a much higher acceptance rate for NFOs, I would rather focus on acing my computer science degree at home.

If I had to do it over I’d do NROTC also, it will help you out if you have questions medically and expose you the lifestyle. You’ll know if you can be an NA/NFO as well, where OCS it isn’t guaranteed (dependent on flight physical) at OCS
All my ROTC buddies in my fraternity loved it. Some don’t like it but everyone has their own opinion. Oh and you also don’t have to go to OCS

Prior service go through OCS as well, right? I read something about a direct commission source and I'm not sure what it applies to.
EDIT: Yes they do

That isn't a bad acceptance rate, it falls in line with historical averages.

If anyone needs any advice on OCS, let me know. I was in Class 06-20 G company back in 2019. Short story is OCS is the best fun you’ll never want to repeat again. My best advice is “don’t stress and don’t sweat it. Everything looks a lot more serious than it is, and don’t forget the Marine DI’s are the nicest dudes you’ll ever meet, they just scream and yell and are mean af until you get to JOC phase, after that you’ll realize they are the only ones watching after you. If you take nothing from this, just remember this; DO NOT TRUST ANYONE there period. Weak characters tend to develop stockholm syndrome and will tell on you about the smallest things. You will get PRB’d and thrown out without any chance to defend yourself. And keep your mouth shut. Go to Friday meetings after day is done. It’s a good way to keep in touch with civilians and get some news from the outside; trust me you will miss it a lot. Also go to Saturday and Sunday mast, they have coffee and donuts and great conversations. I highly recommend you attend men’s bible study on Tuesdays. I belong to a totally different religion but loved going to Tuesday meeting for coffee and snacks and stories.

I was selected SNA with 45 5-7-6 and 3.5 gpa back in August board in 2019. Board met in August 13th and I heard on august 23rd. I was in OCS in Nov 3 parked by Callaghan hall getting yelled at in the cold. Most fun I ever had . Hearing loss is what ended my career in the Navy.
