I talked to the PM yesterday - he said no board in Feb - I have a tendency to believe him.
So basically still the same conclusion.. nobody knows %100 for sure.
If the PM says no board then chance of there being a board is slim to none with slim having one foot out the door.
What is PM? sorry still a newb.
Program Manager, I believe.
correct, the PM works with the director of OCS accessions so the Director will tell the PM we are going to have a board XXXXXX and the PM makes sure the applications are reviewed and ready to go.
I am putting my OCS packet together and I know the board needs my official college transcripts, but I am not sure whether or not I should mail them an official copy myself or have my school send them a copy.
Be wary of anyone who throws out solid dates especially for a rolling board. During last years July board we were having the same debate over when the board would release results, when a troll posted he had got "his" results that day. Everyone almost immediately called up their OR's asking if they had results (including me). Needless to say many OR's got phone calls that day because of the rumor mill, and a successful troll. Bottom line, divest yourself from the rumors and you'll save yourself a lot of frustration.

applications are supposed to be submitted electronically, odds are if you try to have them mailed they will get lost in the maze that is NRC and never be seen again, AND the NRC processors will not see transcripts when you submit your application and reject it for a "fatal kit error".
Then how do you send official so they see it?

What I did was have one mailed to me. It should come in a sealed envelop with tamper stamp. Don't open and just bring to your recruiter or FW it in a seperate envelope. My recruiter just popped it open and stuck in in my file.
