Typical annual cycle, every year of all time. Also NROTC grads arrive around then too. I was an off-season 5th year ROTC dude, so I showed up in like March or April. Classed up immediately, finished API and Primary before the next January. My friends who commissioned in June were still in A-pool or API when I finished primary. Just a cyclical thing.

The answer is “probably”, but I would communicate to OTC Newport or NASC (Pensacola) staff whenever possible so they can support or adjust orders/etc. so you can use remaining SCL.
Currently at TW4, about a 4-6 month wait to class up as of now

Another option, could you possibly delay your OCS class so you can detach from deployment, then use remaining SCL, then start OCS?

Can’t detach from deployment for SCL leave, at least not at my command, that’s my whole predicament rn. I’m sitting in a position to be home from deployment for a month and a half before OCS and for 20+ of those days I’m still attached to my command. Rather than “muster and go home” for those 20 days I wanted to use some of my leave because I already moved my spouse and child out of the area.
I’ll get a letter though that a deferred leave for deployment and reach out to NAS Pensacola to try to use it before classing up since there’s typically a waiting period anyways.

I would make sure you can use all your SCL before it expires. I believe you have to use it over a certain period of time.

trust me, id love to use it. I’d love many other basic things too like being allowed to have a surgery I need so that my OCS dates don’t have to change or so that I don’t end up getting stuck on med hold away from my family for several extra months in Newport. Unfortunately, basic things like decent health care and SCL are hard to come by.
The wait time should be enough when you get to Pensacola that you should be able to take the remainder of SCL……
However, if there’s a way to take it before reentering the world of training commands with your current command, I’d highly advise.
Multiple times I saw people lose their baby leave as they got transferred and the new command told them to “kick rock, you’re starting in 2 weeks”…… however, this was more of an issue in the VTs/HTs, not NASP.
Get all this in writing BEFORE the SCL expires. Trust me, I know.. Please DM if you need help!

Does anyone know if it's a similar wait time from winging to the FRS in San Diego
It varies, hugely.
I just got to the SD FRS.
Some had less than a month + SERE scheduled in the middle of that month.
Other students got months of chilln.
Everyone I’ve seen helo side regardless of coast is doing SERE after FRS check in, which cuts into the « waitime »
