My recruiting officer told me the same thing a few days ago. According to NRD San Francisco May 5th is the date!

In the process of submitting my package for the July boards. Do college transcripts need to be certified as "true copies." I thought I saw this somewhere, but I haven't been able to find anything. 1420.1B states "OCS, MSC IPP, and MECP require an official transcript with a raised seal from school official or registrar." I've submitted for official transcripts in the past and I've never received one with a raised seal.
From what I have been told, they do have to be certified true copy. I don't know about the seal but I know my official transcripts do not have them either.

They don't necessarily have to have a raised seal - each school is different and the Navy can't make them all place seals on official copies of transcripts. However, to be an "official" copy, they MUST be sent directly from your college / university to your recruiter's office. That way, there's no possibility of someone changing / editing the transcripts in any way.
In short, don't worry about the raised seal thing - as long as they're direct from your school(s) to your recruiter, you're good.
My transcripts were not sent directly from my college to the recruiter. I never trusted things like that to happen smoothly. What I did hand in were sealed envelopes with official transcripts in them, and those were acceptable. Several years ago I had each of my colleges send me about 20 sealed official transcripts enveloped individually. I keep them in my desk and use them as needed so I don't ever have to request/wait/beg/rush them.

Just as good as "direct" from your school - smart move on your part.
This constitutes a sealed official transcript from your university.

Be very careful about this though! I did the same thing only to discover that the university had stamped "released to student" on the transcript before sealing it in the envelope and sending it to me. Having it say "released to student" means the Navy won't accept it.

Nearly all our candidates just logged in and printed them from the schools website while in our office, then we stamped them, easy.

Wow... Much less strict then what my recruiter had me follow. No big deal, all my schools sent official copies without issue, but that sounds much easier!
I studied a lot for the OAR and got a 53 (granted I'm not a math person). I wasn't too excited but my OR seemed impressed and said my score was competitive. The guy in charge of testing told me that scores over 60 were very rare.

That is along the same lines as "you are my first"
Why would you believe that the guy was lying? Odd are the majority (70%+) are going to make less than 60...especially on the first go.
