Congrats! I'm also in SA. My recruiter told me there were zero selects from this district, yet you're the second person I've seen post favorable results. I need to figure out where he got the info.

Get your OAR up and write a new statement to reflect why you are applying again. Keep at it. Determination matters.

Pro-Rec N for me. Not going to lie, I am pretty disappointed; I thought my package was pretty solid (3.8 GPA, 59 ASTB, 4 LORs, no waivers). It must have been a very competitive board. Hopefully, I can apply again and get selected. Congrats to those who were selected!

Has anyone heard any rumblings about our potential report date yet?

There's a lessons learned forum on here. I'd go through that and see how you can improve for next time.

I went into my recruiters office today to get fingerprinted and sign my SF-86. He said he hoped to find out about a class date (didn't mention FINSEL) within a month or so. I hope that's the case but I'll hurry up and wait some more.

My recruiter is telling me I need to sign some enlistment paperwork before I get my ocs date. Does this mean if I fail ocs I'm automatically enlisted or what?

I think waiting for the ship date might be worse than waiting on the board to sit.

I think waiting for the ship date might be worse than waiting on the board to sit.

it definitely is.... but remember last week there was no chance of getting one anyway. Hopefully this week there is a fresh batch of signed documents.

So has anyone heard anything about a report date or even sign any papers yet?
