NROTC MO Early board timeline

[USMCGrunt]

You will receive a 6-page set of instructions/ forms for requesting a school change once you receive your scholarship paperwork. There is a form to submit should you request to transfer to another school. After initial placements are completed and a unit is full, your transfer request would place you on a wait list. You can request placement on up to 5 different units. You are placed on the waitlist in the order that the request is received.

In general, no movement on the waitlists occurs until after May 15th.

This information is four years old (from DS's acceptance package) and subject to change. I provided it as directional for your information.

If you search back far enough, there is an older post from me that listed the NROTC units that traditionally fill the fastest (source was P-Flying 17 - a NROTC insider). It listed others that traditionally have openings.

Do they keep filling in your status throughout the month, or do they do it all at once? The selection board is this month then next month right?

Not really sure when the Navy boards are. The Marine Option boards occur twice -- the early/smaller board in November and the "regular" board in February. This thread is pretty much tracking those that got selected in the early board.
