Mine didn't, but from what I've read on here three days is typical for a board. It's kinda mind blowing we put in all this energy and waiting into them and they spend like 2 minutes on the applications (tho im sure alot they just eliminate outright since from older boards it can vary from like 100-500 applications). I think the 2-3 week wait is scheduling ocs times and coordinating shit with the relevant people and recruiters across the country. Typical hurry up and wait.That was rather quick, if I say so myself. Usually these things takes a minimum of a month, it seems. Anyone else’s recruiters told them the same?
I’ve heard that reviewing applications is a very quick process. The lengthy part is the administrative tasks of assigning OCS dates and other such paperwork.My recruiter messaged me today stating “The board is complete as far as I know. Now we just await results.”

I think the last SWO board took at least 4 weeks from the time they convened to the time the applicants heard back. It might have even been 6 weeksMy recruiter messaged me today stating “The board is complete as far as I know. Now we just await results.”

No idea. Check with your recruiter.I submit my package for SWO and Supply since August 30th and the medical part was approved mid September. I have an age waiver for SWO and till now I still havent heard about its status. My package is not up for consideration for this Board because of the age waiver is still pending according to Mr Celestin feedback. What do you think might be the reason for the waiver decision taking so long?
For Supply, I also have an age waiver. It was approved in September and I will be up for consideration for the upcoming Board on December 2nd. I have Supply as my first choice and SWO as my second choice.
I am enlisted so I dont have a recruiter.No idea. Check with your recruiter.
It very well could be that it is because you are outside the waiverable age limits for SWO.I submit my package for SWO and Supply since August 30th and the medical part was approved mid September.

I think it could be that. I just wonder if thats the case why dont they just deny the waiver.It very well could be that it is because you are outside the waiverable age limits for SWO.
It might be going that direction, they could just be busy.I think it could be that. I just wonder if thats the case why dont they just deny the waiver.
Thank you for your prompt responses, Sir!It might be going that direction, they could just be busy.

I read the PA and actually consider not to send in my package. Then, my friend who applied when he is 33 and made it recently, so I thought I just try my luck. The worst is they saying NO.It's not a matter of denying the waiver, you are not even eligible for an age waiver at 33.
Strongly suggest reading the PAs before applying.
It’s possible your friend applied under a previous PA that had age limits higher than 32.I read the PA and actually consider not to send in my package. Then, my friend who applied when he is 33 and made it recently, so I thought I just try my luck. The worst is they saying NO.
