Matthew McWilliams Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 A little background on myself. I graduated college with a 3.5 gpa, played two collegiate sports and scored well on the ASVAB (90/99) and SIFT (65 score); awaiting my flight physical next. I’ve always looked into service even before college and have been very interested in aviation all my life but never thought of the opportunities that were out there. Found out about the WOFT program and I had no hesitation in going down this path. Began my WOFT packet in May and wanted to hear from this community about the quality of letters of recommendation. Thus far, I have a Professor, assistant coach at West Point, and former coach and current principal as some. I’ve heard they don’t expect you to have military aviation letters if you haven’t been around them but would it be better to pursue one and leave no doubt?

Thedude Posted July 18, 2023 Report Share Posted July 18, 2023 You should try to get a recommendation from a currently serving aviator. You’re applying for a job, having someone who actually does the job recommending you carries weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaurus Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Just curious in you being a college graduate. Is Army aviation your first pick in being a military pilot and why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
