I'm not convinced that the new 12 week OCS program is effective 01-05. I've been informed by my recruiter that the change was made effective in July 2004, and my OCS class (October 2nd '04) will be 12 weeks as well. Even those before the reported January '05 date may want to look into this. Although, the information I have says its not yet required that the online courses be completed prior to arrival at OCS.

For those of you that have not yet done so go to the OCS website and choose contact us. Do the request a mentor thing. They will contact you and help you get setup with the online courses. You will want to do this soon. You will get a temp mentor until you get a class officer assigned who will then take over as your mentor.

Ok, when I origanlly asked for a mentor in January, I got a temporary one. I never got assigned a permenant one, and I requested it again (about a month and a half ago). Should I request another one or just be patient (my OCS start date is 22 January 2005).

Thanks!!

Class 01-05 is either July 10 or July 17 (not sure, because of the shortening...someone else will know). Class numbers are based on graduation date, and the fiscal year starts in October, so 01-05 is the first class to graduate in October, which means they started in July.

I would email the temporary mentor to see if a class officer has been assigned to your class yet. The class officer will be your permanent mentor until you reach OCS.

Can you PM me the name of the person they assigned as temporary to you. If its different from the one I was temporarly assigned then I will give you a different contact.
