sTUPID qUESTIONS aBOUT ocs

[Average Monke]

It won't, the board has final approval on all waivers, the immediate selection bypasses the board and the application is just reviewed by the OCM that it meets the parameters set forth in section 4.

That is why in section 5 is says "a waiver may be considered for candidates other than under immediate selection process."

Never mind, I stand corrected.

Never mind, I stand corrected.

Sometimes these things are written in a way that can be confusing, it happens more than you think even for those that have done the job.

So are medical waivers seen for immediate selection?

For the millionth time board members DO NOT know an applicants medical status other than they’re qualified to commission.

One more: packing list says women should bring a swimsuit but also says one will be issued. Can any women chime in??

If someone could give me their opinion on my chances of being accepted to supply corps ocs I would greatly appreciate it:

53 OAR
Graduating with economics degree from top-25 school in May
3.22 GPA
1 internship @ Morgan Stanley (wealth management) and 1 at a consulting firm
2 LOR from former employers, 1 LOR from high school football coach, 1 LOR from economics professor

Been stressed out about my real chances since I’ve been reading that supply ocs is very competitive. I’m hoping that the board can look past my relatively low gpa since I go to a notoriously difficult university.

They don't care where you went, just how well you did, that has been shown many times over.

Would you say I still have a good chance of being accepted?

It is competitive, if you would have been applicant I would ask what else are you interested in as a backup.

Got it, thank you for the advice.

I told my recruiter I’m also interested in SWO and intel so hopefully I get into something.

From what I understand, in terms of competitiveness, SWO and Intel are on opposite ends of the spectrum.

If I were you, I would really buckle down and think about what you want to do. The last thing you want to happen is realizing you got selected for a designator you’re not completely happy with and spending your career regretting it.

In general Supply and Intel pick those who put them as #1. Intel has an average select GPA of 3.5 you are on the lower end but it is possible.

Kind of, but SWO is still picky as in they passed on people rather than making goal.

Supply is absolutely my #1 pick. I was just saying in case I get rejected from supply I would check out other jobs. Definitely would like to have a job related to business as that’s what my degree and internship experience relate to.

Do the different boards actually get informed on how many designators the candidates are applying for?
