PLC

[klostman]

Haven't heard much about anyone else being accepted to PLC jr's this summer. Just curious, how many out there have been accepted to PLC May-July 2003 and where are you from? Or who is in the process of applying for it for next summer? Anyone else from Denver or Colorado? Thanks

guess nobody. i went last summer. had lots of fun it gets freaking humid compared to California and if you are for CO then it will take some time to get used to it. good luck.

Klostman, I'm also applying for PLC jr's. The selection board meets this month. Keeping my fingers crossed. How is your application looking?

Thanks farkle. Schwabenprinz, I actually just got selected December 17th. Talk about a great X-mas present. OSO told me the same day the board met. When does the board meet for your app.?

 

[Schwabenprinz]

Klostman, my board meets mid January. The last day to submit a PFT is January 6 so I'm gonna take advantage of that and take it one more time. Congratulations on being selected Klostman.

My app was 5's and 7's ASTB.
PFT-282
GPA 2.33

recommendations-good, but none from any present or ex service members.

Wiz, with that GPA it can be done. I got in with a 2.5 or so GPA. However just cause the Marine Corps requirement is 2.0 doesn't mean thats an instant gurantee to get in. I am very,very fortunate to have gotten this slot. I wouldn't count on a low 2.0 to be of much help in anyone's situation. PFT really helped me offset my prior grades. EA-6B1, they are still accepting packages for PLC this summer. I'd hurry it up though, its coming quick. And somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe seniors and graduates applying to OCS are being turned away because nothing is available. My OSO told me they are approving apps up through April, or at least in our region.

Schwabenprinz, have you heard back from the board yet? Hopin' its good news for you.
