SWO(EDO-OPTION) BOARD STATUS?

[MM2 (SW) Negron]

Hello everyone. First time poster here. I am currently active duty and I applied to both SWO(EDO-option) and regular SWO. I got recommended for SWO back on the JULY 31st board, but since SWO(EDO) was my first choice, I will not be processed for SWO until the ED board results are published. Therefore, I was wondering if anyone knows when the next SWO(EDO) board meeting is. Thank you for your time.

Hopefully somebody who is in the know will chime in with some information for you. Have you tried sending an email to OCS questions?

If the SWO-EDO option is like the other SWO options (SWO-IP/SWO-IW), then applicants are selected by the ultimate community (EDO in your case). According to the current board schedule, there is no scheduled board for EDO. See below link (board 15-102): http://www.cnrc.navy.mil/Graphic-El...131 FY15 BOARDSKED By Community - Encl 4 .pdf

Thank you, yes. I've been in contact with PS1 Fenton, NRC HQ, N3. She's the person who explained to me my situation and told me I will be on hold until the SWO(EDO) board convenes. The problem is that as Popo Jijo stated, there is no board scheduled. I'm emailing PS1 every 2 weeks or so because I don't want to be a pain in her behind. I found this forum about a month ago and it occurred to me that maybe someone in this community may have some insight.

Plus it helps me bear with the waiting and pass the time
