mezz Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 19 May was the cutoff for the July board and 21 July is the cutoff for the September board. This information can be found on the USAREC warrant officer site. http://www.usarec.army.mil/hq/warrant/WOgeninfo_boardschedule.shtmlI was going to say, I am a civilian applicant and I swear my recruiter is telling me different dates than what the USAREC site is saying..

mdeneso Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I was going to say, I am a civilian applicant and I swear my recruiter is telling me different dates than what the USAREC site is saying..I believe those cutoff dates are used so that if your packet requires any waivers or corrections it gives you adequate time before the board. It was my understanding that if you submIt after those dates there is not a guarantee your packet will be seen by the board. I may be wrong, but that is what I was told. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might not be related, but I do remember feeling the same about my recruiter saying different dates when I first started. It may be that he is talking about the Battalion level boards (the interview step in the packet), and those are pretty sporadic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAMERON86 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Has anyone else received their WOCS class date? Working with MEPS they said the December 2017 is the earliest available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelsup Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Has anyone else received their WOCS class date? Working with MEPS they said the December 2017 is the earliest available. I believe the next 7 week WOCS class is January 2018. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew N Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Can you be a civilian and apply for a WOFT spot? I exited active duty from the Marine Corps last January and when I was discussing Army aviation with a WO recruiter he said I would need to enlist into a unit first and then apply for a WO pilot spot. I'm a little confused. From reading through here it appears that people who are out of the military or in other branches reserve/active components are able to apply.

He told me to ignore the ones on usarec and he had others. So glad we were all in the same boat Also on the WOCS classes, in March the soonest was January 2018. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAMERON86 Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Can anyone break down the difference between the 7 week resident course and the DL + 5 week resident course? My recruiters were not able to explain the difference, and who attends what course. I am a PS USMC E5 with Sergeants Course, which to my understanding would place me in the DL + 5 week course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I get selected and go to this Jan 2018 WOCS class date, will my wife stay in Hawaii under Hawaii BAH or do we PCS both to Alabama? Is this a PCS or considered a TDY?

If you're an army street to seat noob like me you go to the 7 week course. Prior enlisted should be in the 5 week course unless they fail to complete the online portion. There may be other criteria that I don't know about. All the guys that I know who came in from other branches had to do the 7 week course.

Schroedb87 Posted May 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Any idea when the MILPER message will drop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schroedb87 Posted May 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Your move to Rucker will be a PCS.This is correct for sister service as well correct? And is there any option that you know of to not have that happen and instead treat it as a TDY? Wife landed an awesome GS job but needs to stay there 4 years to finish out the contract, so it would be ideal to keep here there if that is an option, with BAH there.

blue2green Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 My husband went to MEPS on Friday and they said the next WOCS class is starting in November. Maybe they're adding a new one to accommodate the needs of the Army? Or they have false info, also likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krustchinsky Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 If he is prior service/active duty he'll go to a 5 week class, Gideon and I are noobs and are going to the 7 week class. I'm sure the 5 week class people will ship sooner than the WOFT noobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
