25JAN21 PILOT/NFO BOARD

Has anyone heard information that the SNA board had been closed to applicants starting after Thanksgiving? I’ve had my packet ready to submit for today and received a call from my recruiter that the board has denied SNA applicants after the 25th of November and will be keeping the board closed in 2021 due to Covid. He said that there might be a chance that they start accepting during the year but it’s very slim.

Any help or info would be appreciated.

Not sure if this is correct or not, the deadline is supposedly the 11DEC while some recruiters would have liked everything submitted on 01DEC. Mine was submitted on 23NOV but there has been people who submitted for SNA after thanksgiving. So I can’t clarify on this.

My recruiter called me Dec 1st saying they considered closing the pilot board Dec 1st. They didn't and it's still open to submit until Dec 11th.
There's A LOT of confusion related to this board and it's associated deadlines.

Did he say if this board is being closed or the rest of the 2021 boards after this board are being closed? My recruiter said there were some recruiters not taking applications after December 1st and then some that are taking them till December 11th. I second @Mouselovr there has been a ton of confusion surrounding everything this board.

The running theory as I previously said was they considered closing early. Also, some districts wanted it by Dec 1st.
Currently, the next scheduled board is early summer.

Looks like today might be the day the NOV.2 board gets their results too. Just so we know we can expect a long wait...

My recruiter was accepting after December 1st due to the board having the extension. He was surprised to find out they closed it early, according to what he stated. I am not aware of where/whom he received this information from. He did state that they decided to close the board for all of 2021 due to the amount of applicants and how backed up the pipeline was. He said that the board may open during the year but it sounds like there is a lack of information somewhere between the communication lines. I have one of the AW forum members reaching out to me with more info from another local recruiter.

so far, according to my recruiter, the board should still take place, nothing official has come out of CNRC so far, it seems that it varies from district to district when it comes to that information. When I talked to the Aviation Officer Community Manager he did say that the number of slots for the fiscal year were capped, but that he was not sure whether there was going to be a board or not in January, since that is not his jurisdiction, if you will, but did mention that worst case scenario probably in the summer would be the next board. Same from my recruiter, she said so far the January board still seems to be a go, but that schools are backed up due to the reduction of classes in both OCS and in Pensacola, so in case we do get selected we would have to wait a while. she did agreed, that worst case scenario we'd just wait for the next board, in May 25th.

Hi, folks.

My recruiter played a surprising trick on me. He submitted my package late the last board and I just got word I was selected for pilot. I will go in and remove myself from this board's spreadsheet once I have myself added to the November one.

I am still rooting for you all!!
