15 SEP2025 SNA/SNFO BOARD

My recruiter said there isn't any until 2026. Is she wrong?
one thing we've come to learn as of late is that sometimes, recruiters are just as confused and lack information as we are 😭

For reference, when I started applying last October, my recruiter basically said the same thing--I-Sel or no more pilot slots; then he recently told me that they were told no more aviation for at least 9 months and then 4 months later the May board opened back up so he was just as confused and annoyed as us...
 
First of all, congrats! Those are stellar scores.

Secondly, boards are filled based on how qualified an applicant is, (mostly ASTB scores) but they do look at other stuff if they need a tiebreaker. Also about no spots until 2026… I’ve heard multiple people say their recruiters told them this, specifically that they’re only taking I-SEL and BDCP until then, but until there’s an official decision then it’s still up in the air. My recruiter told me it’s more likely that Supply got filled until next year, he hasn’t heard anything about aviation. But there’s nothing we can do, so just sit tight.
Gotcha, that makes sense. So when the next board comes I should make it then right?

What's the best place to stay up to date on boards since recruiters can be lackluster at some times?

Also was I correct with those dates in regards to the excel sheet posted on this thread?

Oh no that doesnt sound like fun 🤣 I wish I didnt need a waiver lol.

Edit: Anyone have experience with drug waivers?

Your guess is as good as any. Yes, the board schedule should be posted on the first page of the thread. To stay up to date, just get your packet submitted. If they convene and select you, they’ll tell you. If not, or they cancel the board, you’ll be put into the next one automatically.

It’s been a roller coaster of a year definitely wasn’t exactly fun lol. I’ve heard drug waivers are usually accepted now and is quite common if it’s just weed stuff; I personally got rolled from I-Sel to regular board due to experimental weed usage of <10 times so that didn’t incur a waiver.

Yea that's my issue, not just weed...
