May-Ish 2015 SWO Rolling Board Thread

[HM3 San]

Thank you @USSMaximus. I am applying for SWO, Intel, Supply. I need to get commissioned soon, I am aging out fast...

I submitted everything through OCS Fleet Application (had 2 bad experiences with recruiters), but was TNPQ pending DD 2807-1 update because my previous N3M letter was limited to Restricted Line and Staff Corps only. For fleet applicants double check your N3M and make sure it states Unrestricted, restricted and staff corps, otherwise you paid attention to detail

I am hoping to be on this board once I get my N3M settled.

Recruiters aren't allowed to work with SELRES, so that's probably the reason why they weren't able to help out with your application.

 

[HM3 San]

When I started applying in 2013, they were recruiting SELRES as long as you have a DD214. I guess the instructions changed, but I am happy that my COC is very supportive.

 

[USSMaximus]

Well, your stats look good for SWO, and that's the next board up. Lets hope we both get in!

 

[HM3 San]

Agree! Good luck to all of us!

That rule changed about a year or so ago. Unless you are applying for Reserve Officer, Medical, JAG, or Chaplain you must go through your CCC.

 

[USSMaximus]

Do you think the board will convene if I say pretty please?

 

[Brooksssiiieee]

Maybe if we join forces it will happen quicker, "prettyyyyyy pleaseeeeee"!?

 

[USSMaximus]

Let's hope for a date this up coming week!

[USSMaximus]

Great score, Irish! Has anyone heard anything about this board date yet?

 

[MIKEH]

What's up everybody. I am new to the website, but I also have a SWO packet in at the moment. Anyone hear anything today in regards to a date? Thanks in advance for any info.

 

[goldmanharry91]

I really hope my OAR score (49) doesn't shoot me in the foot then again my MEPS still hasn't finished reading my medical reports. Hopefully it will be in before this board meets. Couldn't imagine waiting another 3 months for the next one.

 

[USSMaximus]

Welcome to AW MIKEH! We don't have a date yet, but since it's May-ish, we are expecting one any day now. What are your stats?

@goldmanharry91, the OAR is fine. Just make sure your other stats are good. What are your stats? Hopefully you hear back from MEPS soon! Usually you have to turn in your stuff like a month before the board date.
