Hey,
I don't know how long it will actually take as far as final select goes. But, I do know that since we both submitted our medical documents as fleet applicants, the documents will be sent to the medical director so that they can generate a final select. Hope this helps, I just heard this today myself.

For the Fleet Applicants - we have tried to put out as much info about OCS applications and post-board processing onto NPC's StayNavy website, which talks about OCS and other commissioning programs. Here is the link:http://www.public.navy.mil/BUPERS-NPC/CAREER/CAREERCOUNSELING/Pages/CommissioningPrograms.aspx. Once you read through the document titled "What Happens Next", I think that that should answer a lot of your questions.
Congratulations Binoly and AE2ENSIGN!

Making Recruiting Great Again
SWO board met last week, I expect the next SWO board to occur around October, similar time to when the next Pilot/NFO board will convene.

Congratulations to those selected this past SWO board. I am truly happy for you!!
I have a question I feel I already know the answer to, but will ask anyways. I know the application deadline for IDC is fast approaching. With that being said, is there a chance they might board early as well? Working off assumption here; with the summer board being canceled and all kits rolled I can only imagine that they too would have "enough" to hold a board.
Also, I read a few pages back that IDC selection is right around 20%. Do the SME's here believe there will be a similar outcome for the 15 September board?

From what I've seen since I've been applying I have seen the IDC board stay true to schedule. The SWO board wasn't early since it's a rolling board. It happens every 90-120 days or when xx amount of applications are received at NRC.
I don't think we can speculate what the selection rate will be but it is much more competitive than other designators.
Good question!!!

All - no, I would not expect the IDC board to go earlier than its present scheduled date, which is 15Sep14, with applications due to Recruiting Command no later than 06Aug14, earlier if at all possible to allow the team here enough time to process the kits and get them ready for the board. I would once again expect this Sep14 IDC board to once again be competitive and result in a traditionally "low" selection rate of something around 20-25%, which is what the IDC selection rates have been over the last few years.
I thought I was the only one
