Very serious about applying for OCS when I am close to graduation (May time frame). How many boards do they hold a year and when? Can’t seem to find out where they put out this information.
My stats:
3.9 G.P.A Human Resource Management
8 years active duty/ RS2
3 Nam’s 1 floc/ LPO position/ last 2 eval EP
Oar:48
Prt: Excellent 2021, Good 2019, Sat 2019
I think that sat from 3 years ago might mess me up.
Let me know please!
Your 8 years TIS is a major flight risk in terms of community management. Communities, especially Supply Corps have taken hits (higher than expected attrition/losses to include retirements) at the O-4 paygrade level with prior enlisted officers who are retirement eligible at 20 years of active duty service. That's a main part why there's an 8 year requirement in the program authorization is to better maintain community health at the O-4 paygrade. I get it that once commissioned that you might want to serve another 20 years as an officer... but things may change between now and when you're retirement eligible.
I would suggest contacting the Supply Corps OCM first to see if that 8 years TIS may be waived, my assumption is doubtful but you never know.
If a waiver is approved and your application is ready to be submitted... highly suggest you check out the other Supply Corps OCS threads around here. Applicants who are selected/not selected usually post stats, that can give you an idea where you stack.
