based on what I just read going back into the September thread it’s 6 months.I might’ve been wrongI’m sorry. I swore that if you wanted to apply again for the same designation you had to retake your score or get another degree (change in packet).
I believe there's a wait period of 6 months from a rejection, unless you have a significant change in your package (new degree, better test scores, marry admirals daughter). In his case, FY27 opens in 6 to 7 months anyway, so if you can wait that long (and there's no cancellations) it won't be the end of the world.I might’ve been wrong
It opens up in April apparently
yes the board in April is for FY27It opens up in April apparently
"marry admirals daughter" does this actually help??
Yes. Get on tinder now
I might’ve been wrong
This is absolutely insane lol. You’ll be fine, now you’ve got a funny story.Just got a call that I was not accepted for ISEL SNA. ASTB is 64 8/9/8 and my recruiter told me, “do you want to try again for a 9/9/9?”
now I might wait. Gonna go buy some melatoninBro just wait for the board, do not go NFO if you do not want toBad news about the 6 month thing is now I have to lose sleep the next few days to ponder my decision. I was about to go NFO
I’m still unclear what it exactly means tho. I don’t know if it was a rejection, if it’s that I don’t qualify for ISEL for some reason (my recruiter didn’t suggest this), or if they accepted some ISEL applicants but didn’t review mine. I did just get it in a couple days ago (allegedly).
From my understanding if you didn’t get selected for ISEL, it’s either cause of some kind of DQ, or they had already filled their quotas and barely had any spots. Since you doubt there’s a reason for DQ then I think the ladder is likely. Talk more with your recruiter and just submit for the next board as soon as you can. I do not believe you have to wait 6 months if you aren’t selected at an ISEL board.
If it’s a DQ then it’s because I disclosed MJ experimentation (not requiring waiver). I’ve heard different things abt this tho. I’ve heard it’s an ISEL DQ for all designators and I’ve also heard that it’s only for intel. I’m going on the assumption that it is an issue and that I gotta wait for a board.
That’s it 100%. There was a guy who had the same thing happen in the September board. Great scores and everything but the MJ experimentation (no waiver) DQ’d him from ISEL. Submit for the regular board and you should be good to go.
