Is this whole "over 3,000 applicants" thing coming from that Reserve news thing someone found online?
I highly doubt that 3,000 people just decided to apply this year out of nowhere. In the past, it's been right around 700-800.

Unless the reserve has it's own STA-21, then this is what I found.

MENTORSHIP ... HELP GET TO 3,232:
FY09 STA-21 Application status: 5,018 have registered on the
STA-21 Web site; of those 3,231 who have submitted their applications.
https://www.sta-21.navy.mil/
I think the 3,000 is the number of people who actually completed their online application, but this is NOT the number of people who actually submitted a full package with all the required documentation. I know this program is getting a lot more popular, but that would be GIANT leap!!
My package status was originally closed, and now it is open. I'm hoping this is a sign!!

FY09 STA-21 NFO Select
If you really wanted to you could take a quick poll of everyone to see if they had their status closed or not, what program they were applying for, and bounce it against previous years. Since historically there are low selects for supply, CEC, SWO ext. maybe you can try and figure it out that way.

A poll is flawed in that I only found this website yesterday and I'm sure that there are tons of people that aren't sweating this like we are. I'd like to see what the results would be if we could make it happen though.
Wow, isn't that the truth.

Calling all Applicants - THE POLL
Let's see if we can get ourselves all worked up over nothing and talk about the potential FY09 "ACCIDENTAL" STA-21 LEAK. Please just post what your option was and whether or not your status remained open, or did it close, and where it lies now.
I'll start:
Medical Corps; remained open the entire time.

HAHA. If I don't make this this year, it means another year of working on that continually flawed, brand-new SPY Radar. Of course I'm sweating it.

Honestly I don't think closed or open had anything to do with it. The majority of people had their checklist closed, but I don't think that means that the people's who list stayed open got selected. If I had to guess.... I would say it had more to do with individual options, it seemed like of the people whoes list were left open.... they/we were were all applying for the same few option. which would speculate that certian members of the board (choosing specific options) actually did there jobs and closed checklist after reviewing packages.... and others didn't.
As far as the 3000 online applicants..... the otherday I ran some statistics and out of those 3000... estimated only 1800 packages were turned in, and only 1100 were board eligible. Still a large number though.
