Got Pro Rec Y from the the list, but yeah I haven't heard from my recruiter since July 29th. My old recruiter (I've known since 2018) retired and this new one only contacted me via text to tell me he was my new recruiter lol.. But yeah I haven't even heard my new recruiter's voice before, like ever.. So, still waiting for the phone call!

My Full Stats:
Age: 26
Only applied for #1 SWO (1160)
Undergrad GPA: 3.79
University: Cal Poly SLO
Degree: B.S. City and Regional Planning, 2019
OAR: 49 (second attempt)
Prior Service: No (civilian only)
LOR: Employer (McDonald's Manager 3 years), Employer (Supervisor from my city planning internship 3 months), College Professor (Studio Professor 3 years)

Etc. Background (stuff I put into my motivational statement):

I was doing the NUPOC program at my university, but my NUPOC recruiter transitioned me to a general recruiter in 2018.

I would be a 3rd generation Navy legacy. I wrote this in my motivational statement, and of how growing up as a Navy brat inspired me to become a Naval officer.

Graduated with the second highest GPA (class rank #2) in my major for my graduating class for undergrad.

I received congressional nomination (Lois Capps) for USNA Fall 2016, but did not receive appointment.

Chapter President Golden Key International Honour Society, San Luis Obispo (2018-2019)

Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Philippines (2019). I was a High School teacher, but only served 6 months. PCVs returned due to COVID-19 halting all volunteer service world-wide.
