How in depth is it compared to the medical in Pensacola

The physical in Newport is more in depth than the one in Pensacola. They're basically screening you to see if you can make it down to Pensacola without any issues. Some people were DQ'd for eye injury surgeries, slow reaction times, chronic illness, and things of that nature.

Thanks. The medical stuff is what worries me the most. I had like 6 medical waivers when I went to meps.

It's what worries most snas and nfos. I suggest reading the Nami waiver guide if you want some better info.

For anyone that’s gone to OCS for Aviation (Pilot or NFO) what’s the physical like for when you get there? My recruiter told me that there would be a separate physical for those who were going to be in aviation. Thank you

Check my page. I’ve got a long post from a couple years back where I detailed the process in Newport

We went to a separate physical off base to get some aviation things checked out (blood, eyes, X-rays, etc). The waiting and the bagged lunch is usually the worst part.

Hi! I have a quick question. I’m planning to apply for both Supply and NFO, but I wanted to clarify something about waivers. If I receive a non-medical waiver for Supply (specifically for the math class requirement), would that same waiver be visible to or considered by the NFO board? I’m asking because the NFO program authorization PDF states that non-medical waivers aren’t permitted, and I want to be sure how that might affect my application.

Is math class required for an NFO application?

No but it’s cause I have a waiver in the application. I’m wondering if they’d see that and say no

Why would they? It's not a program requirement for NFO.

With the title of this thread kept in mind, I dare ask the following:

I don't trust my recruiter. He's been shady and flaky and flip-flopping what he says. He says my waiver was approved, and my package is officially past the processors and submitted for the upcoming supply and SWO boards. My question is does anyone know if I can somehow confirm this? I have no prior service.

Thanks

Hello, I submitted an application for designators in the IWC during the September window. There is a new application window in December and I am wondering what are some things you need to update between packages? I don't know results yet but I want to get ready just in case.
I'm being told Personal Statement is a big one. I have 5 interviews and 1 LoR from multiple designators and scored a 54 on the OAR.
Are the Community Managers open about what you need/missed on?
