knowing the navy, they probably ran out of quotas and were planning to pick for next year anyway. The virus just made it so that they had an excuse to cancel the board that they didn’t need anyway.

Yea because I emailed Mr. Celestin and he confirmed board cancelation and postponement until August or "whenever the board is " according to him. It didn't really give me a good feeling inside. But hey Semper Gumby!

Yea I agree! I didn't really like how he put that in the email but perhaps that's where they are now in light of everything going on in the world.

I was ProRec N from the Feb10 board as well, but am resubmitting for this (August) one. Biggest downfalls for me were likely my GPA and the fact that I had not graduated yet. I’ve raised my GPA and get conferred on June 1. I’m working on a revised motivational statement and got an LOR from a professor that is a retired O-6 SWO. Not gonna lie, I was pretty bummed out when I got the call and avoided this site for a while, but I think I’ve got a better shot now that I’ve improved some things. Oh, I have also been putting in volunteer time at the local food bank.
I am more than open to any suggestions about how I can further polish off my package. I start a graduate course that finishes on July 26th, though I think that may be a little late for me to add for the August board.

Just to add my stats:
GPA 2.77
OAR: 52
6 years AF prior service
LORs: SWO O-6 ret., Army pilot O-4, AF E-7
I say my gpa is estimated because my recruiter will never tell me what it actually is, he just keeps saying, somewhere between (insert two numbers). A little frustrating because I’d like to know where I actually sit.

Finally completed my Master's degree 3.97. I might have to update my package, still waiting on my age waiver approval. It was submitted on the 19th of March. Mr. Celestin don't have confirmation yet, still hope for the best. I contacted him last week to know if he has heard anything about the waiver, but, he said no.

you submitted your waiver at the same time I submitted mine, I got confirmation last month on approval. That’s odd... congratulations on your masters, Mr. Celestin said we can send our transcripts in to him prior to the August board to update our packages. Good luck!
