July 2016 Selection Board


Recommended Posts

Lot of conspiracy theorists on here. Can't really fault my recruiter, hes gotten everything done he needs to get done so far. I guess he could have gotten some things done sooner and gotten me in on one of the earlier boards that had over 90% selection, but that was my fault too because I was still fat last summer and couldn't finish a 2 mile run. He didn't get the ball rolling until I could get a competitive PT score in, and I didn't put in a decent run until like October

I give you a lot of credit for owning it. If you enlist, work hard, and do great things, you certainly won't be worse off. Just keep your heart where it needs to be. Persistence pays off.

What's the time if you go twice non selected? Was it 6 months or a year before you can apply again?

You have to wait one year from the date on your DA Form 61 (Application for Appointment) You should of had to sign it before your first board appearance. You can always apply for an ETP but usually is only granted if something significantly changes in your packet.
