I got Pro-Req for SWO. I also applied for Supply and IW. I haven't heard anything about those two so I am assuming I was not accepted.

I don't know where you would find them, but I have verbals that I'm in the 06SEP class. It seems like one gets scheduled every three weeks. This may not be the best information, but it might help give you a little bit of an idea. Hope that helps!

Question: after you get Pro Rec, what exactly do you have to do next? We are about to do POM prior to deploying and my results should be out by the end of the month for IDC board. I will be on leave though back In CONUS (current stationed in Hawaii) and I am not sure what to do....my leave is only for 10 days but I am not sure how time critical the medical paperwork is and if this could delay shipping....any recommendations and information would help!!! This is assuming that I could get picked up.....
There will be time to get everything asked of you done, and the OCS Processors are very good about letting you know exactly what they need. It a actually took @PettyOfficerCJ and I about three or four months to finally get all of the medical paperwork done to receive our "physically qualified" letters, but that was mostly due to the availability of appointments for what was needed, at least on my end.
The medical stuff will really depend on what you marked "yes" to on the 2807 (I think), and how recent your supporting documentation is that essentially clears you from that injury or ailment. If they require an exam by a specialist, I'd advise you to ask them to put "fully fit for commission" somewhere on the paperwork, should they find you fit for duty. In my case, I only had one reportable injury, a concussion sustained on an exped deployment in 2012, that I was cleared of upon my return in 2013. Despite the extensive testing conducted then, NRC still wanted me to go get reexamined because the paperwork was not recent enough.
Also, if medical gives you the runaround, don't be afraid to get your chain of command involved. You'll get more bees with honey, and the Processors understand about time and scheduling conflicts, but if they're telling you that you can't get in for a pre-comm screening until October, let someone in your CoC know. I'm not sure of your rate or command, but @PettyOfficerCJ is also down in HI, so she might be worth private messaging.
Hope this helps!

Wow why does it take so long for the medical? Don't we do all of it for the package anyways? Did you apply for something special?
It's different for everyone depending on what they answered yes and no to. It's entirely possible that you get your PQ with what you've already submitted.
My advice would be not to worry about any of this until you find out whether or not you've been professionally recommended. You won't find out what additional information, if any, NRC needs until then. No sense in worrying.

I expect to get my FINSEL by noon, be on a plane by 1400, and check into OCS this evening (you know, the specialized OCS class that they will create for my age-critical old ass!)So you'll be checking out tomorrow then?
