Pro-rec SNA
So I have various volunteer hours.. Like 6 to 8 hours on a couple and one with 20 hours.. plus raising some money for relay for life.. Is any of this worth mentioning? I think I only have like 60hrs total of volunteer work across 6 or 7 events. I mean I want to add anything I can to boost me every inch, but at the same time I don't want to waste time putting it in there if it's not meaningful..
Why not put it? The last time I did volunteer work was about 3 years ago and it was only 10 hours but I still put it down.
Resubmitting after a non-select in November
21, M
3.58 GPA from Univ. of Mich.
8/9/8 61 ASTB (was previously a 5/5/5 52)
VP of fraternity
Raised about $1,000 for an orphanage in Africa last year
Do about 10 hours of community service a week
Ran a marathon in 3:02
Various other clubs/activities
Standard letters (although none from active duty personnel)
Only blemish this time around is a MIP. Hope that won't hurt too much. Excited to get my name back in the hat!
EDIT: Oh yeah, applying NFO, Intel and IW, would definitely apply SNA but I wear glasses. Too late to go through the whole surgery thing if I want to get a pro-rec/final select in the April cycle.

Hey Sorry,
Didn't mean to imply not to put it, just rather be brief. Maybe something like "I have volunteered over 60 hours through various functions while attending school/between x and y, at various locations including (top 3).
Not saying this is the only way to go by anymeans, but unless you have a LOR from the place too much information might not be a good thing.

Nice job. Good Luck!

Alrighty then. Here we go again. I’m a re-apply from last Oct.
M/ 23/Non Prior
SNA/NFO…. SWO? Maybe.
3.8 GPA B.B.A Finance Austin Peay State University ‘09
3.75 current GPA Master’s in Management APSU. Graduating in May
Member of Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society
Historian of Gamma Beta Phi Service based honor society where I participated in several community service events.
Volunteered 10 hrs for Salvation Army last Christmas
PRK on eyes. Currently 20/20
ASTB: 8/8/8 63
LOR: 2 current bosses (one Captain of Campus Police where I work former enlisted Marine/Army officer Bronze Star Recipient. The other Tech Supervisor that was a former Captain of Police and SWAT team commander)
One retired Cobra Pilot (Distinguished Flying Cross Recipient)
One retired Master Sergeant (Bronze Star Recipient x2)
Interview with current Captain, C/O of Vanderbilt ROTC program. (I think it went well. Won’t know for a few days)
Now here’s the kicker. April of ’09 I had some trouble with the law. Pulled an idiot move leaving a pre-graduation party. Charged with DUI, Evading, Implied Consent, and Reckless driving. Only convicted with Implied Consent and Reckless driving. DUI/Evading dropped and expunged. I’m pretty sure this is why I was a non-select last time. I’m hoping they will understand this was a one time, terrible judgment call. No other trouble than that. Also I worked at the time, and still work at a police department.
