SWO BOARD 17AUG20

[exNavyOffRec]

Don't forget to update your results on the chart, to help out future applicants who have to go through the same process as we did:

SWO AUG 2020 BOARD to be shared with Airwarriors

docs.google.com

I would recommend adding a column for waiver and a Y or N option, that could help explain some things, but you wouldn't want to get too deep due to privacy.

Look at HCA

HCA is effectively closed if you aren't a MSC-IPP student. And it's career outlook isn't great with the DHA realignment.

 

[exNavyOffRec]

Or MSC? Or are those the same?

HCA is under the MSC umbrella

Prorec Y! No date yet but good luck to everyone waiting and congratulations to everyone selected

It has always been a small group and selective the changes make it even more selective.

How big are class sizes? Just seeing quite a few people with the same class date as me and it’d be cool to have some friends/familiar faces when going through OCS

I think I read somewhere 80 males 20 females. There are threads for class dates on here

I’m in a ball of tears right now. I was selected! I had a low OAR and 2 crappy interviews. Don’t ever give up on making your package about YOU! I really feel that my personal statement made me stand out... write to the board! ❤️

High GPA probably helped! Congrats!

Pro-rec no for me. Good GPA and average OAR. Guess I’ll be re-applying soon. Congratulations to those who received their Y’s today.

your high GPA and good degree is what most likely did it, the closer you are to a perfect candidate the better chance you have.

I was so sure that I didn’t make it. I selected orders and we were getting ready to PCS. I had plans of just applying again. When I say my interviews weren’t that great, I had one LT that wasn’t a SWO (not a big deal), but I also had an O4 that rated me in the 7s and 8s (with the occasional 10 mixed in). I couldn’t redo the interviews because there’s no SWOs anywhere near my command or city. The OAR was acceptable, but still low. I just didn’t think it was my time to be honest. ❤
