What is DEP( delayed entry program) for OCS? Is it enlisting?

[kahkakike]

I recently signed my application to submit them. There was DEP (delayed entry program), and the recruiter told me it is just monthly meeting until I go to OCS.

Is this also enlisting? I only want to go the officer path, and not enlist at all. I know a lot of people enlist by DEP.

Please, clear my confusion. Thank you so much.

Prior to and while at OCS you enlist in the E-5 paygrade. It’s in the paperwork you signed…

For future questions or need clarity, ask your recruiter and/or professor. They are standing by to assist.

Hi, thank you so much for clarifying. So, may I ask if the same for everyone signing up for OCS? Thanks in advance.

Yes, everyone at OCS will be in the enlisted paygrade. Some may be in a higher paygrade for a variety of reasons.

I have seen your name a lot here, and I appreciate the helpful content. Thank you so much for always helping out. Can I ask one more? So everyone has to sign the DEP program when applying for Navy OCS, right? I just dont want to mess up my paperwork and somehow sign enlistment stuff.

Yes, everyone will sign paperwork once they are selected.

You should have been briefed on this by your recruiter, were you given a DEP book for those going to OCS with items to study?

What is your designator going to be? There have been some FB groups made for those that will be in the same OCS class.

wow that’s interesting. I have only submitted my application, and there is no result of selected or not, but I already sign that DEP (there was a box for the DEP and it was marked by the recruiter)? Can you please explain more?

Did you go to MEPS and sign anything there?

Hi, I already went and passed MEPS. I signed the application and turn in my LOR, transcript etc today. I signed a page that has the marked DEP (which recruiter told me it is monthly meeting). I have not even submitted my package yet

I did not receive any book. I chose swo, and have not submit package yet. Just signing documents today

It sounds as if you just signed some acknowledgements, you can ask it should not be an issue for him.
