31OCT22 SNA/SNFO BOARD

[cjwinton01]

so I’m prorec N… any advice on SWO lat transfer or should I go around again in may? It’s gonna be a low select again if seems. Might just be better off throwing in the Towel for this pilot thing.

I didn't think about this until it was brought up, but if they can't get you in before you don't meet the age in the PA then technically you wouldn't meet the PA, that is the only thing that makes sense to me.

Feels like they could've made this work, seeing that there are individuals from this board going into the Jan 23 class. Unless his bday is before that graduation?

 

[cjwinton01]

22 SNA selects. 45 NFOs. 19% of applicants accepted…so yes. A slaughter house of a board. See y’all in May?

jesus christ, no wonder I didn’t get picked up. Anyone else considering the marine route? My Navy recruiter wants me to go for swo and pilot in may. DM me if you have info on the next Marine pilot board because lord knows I need it.

Correct, if a person's birthday is before the graduation that would be an issue.

The last few boards we could probably say it was average 50% yeah

Not to kill spirits but keep everyone informed N3 also posted a new dashboard on the sharepoint today showing Pilot as closed "Designator/board is closed. Applicants will be pushed to next FY." There is also a note listed next to Pilot and NFO "JUL23 Board for FY24 quotas."

so july is the next board and not may?

 

[cjwinton01]

and damn that’s my bday haha

Not necessarily. It still lists the next board as May 23 but over to the side in notes is the part about the July board. Perhaps just projecting the July board being near the end of the FY. I say keep the press and keep pushing!

Don’t take a designator with the intention of lat transferring to SNA, they take very few people and you won’t be able to apply until a few years after you commission.

There are no more slots to give for SNA on the May Board based on the dashboard. It’s been highlighted red, which means rolling over to the next fiscal year (July) which may also mean the August or Oct board of 2023.

It’s probably because you will age out and there’s no opportunities for FY-23.

Thank you for that. Helps make some sense.
