Submitted my application for NFO but I couldn't qualify for SNA due to medical. However, once I get the medical part situated, if I get denied for NFO for the May board my recruiter says I can apply for SNA in August but not NFO. Can anyone confirm this? I thought you had to have major change in GPA or something in order to reapply? Or is it because I'm only applying for NFO this board and only applying SNA for the August board?
You don't need to have a major change to reapply, simply put, but there are stipulations on when you can reaplly.
If you don't change your application you will need to wait six months to reapply to the same designator (ie. SNA or SNFO). If you want to reapply to a subsequent board after having been non select you will need to change something to be able to do so, if you're applying for the same designator for a second time within six months.
I think the way your recruiter is working the application they're getting around the wait time by not applying to the same designator back to back, therefore they're not required to do the six month wait if you don't change your application.
You could technically still do both in August, assuming you had a major change to your application following the May board. Lately people don't have time to make significant changes since the long wait for results can eat away at the prep time for the next board.
