1001 questions (and answers) concerning BDCP

Hey guys I just applied to Jan 5th SWO board underneath BDCP. I graduate in May of this year and I was wondering if I get selected if they will let me go to OCS in August?

I think its dependent on if they have slots open. Once you get your class date you could ask your recruiter to be bumped up to an earlier class. I applied to the August board and was given a class date of Aug 02 26.

I’m wanting to hopefully get bumped to a later. Because I’m worried I will be given right after I graduate I’m trying to be in the best shape I can

It’s for foreign travel. Need access to websites like IATP and APACS.

I’d you’re still running into issues worst case is you can logon to a military computer when you see your recruiter and complete it there.

While you’re at it make sure you route a leave chit/request since you’re traveling OCONUS. Your recruiter should be sending you the PDF form.

FYI, new SECWAR guidance is all service members should be working out daily. Along with the recent BCA/weigh in changes I would start now to ensure you’re ready for what’s ahead.

Yeah it’s coming up in a couple months. Cant route a chit though until IATP and APACS are both done as well as acknowledging a force protection brief. I will make sure to ask for it asap. Thank you.
 
Anybody have experience with OCS class dates and BDCP? I'm curious on what the typical timeline looks like between college graduation and getting shipped off to OCS.
 
This is going to sound silly. But is there anyone here who was selected for BDCP who is over 245lbs? I passed MEPS and am well within the taping standard. I just worry since I am over the "245 lbs max" in the OPNAV that I cant be selected. I am speaking with my recruiter and he isn't too sure either.

How far over 245 are you? I think you should aim to be a bit below that before heading to OCS just to make sure they don't flag you for something like that. If youre already selected and processed you should be fine for now. This is just my guess, so no guarantees.
