My DS has been having a problem where his coordinator has changed back and forth twice in the past 2 months, each telling him that they haven't received documents that were repeatedly emailed to them. Still waiting for a response from current coordinator though it's the holiday week. I know it's a busy time all around. It's just getting close to deadline and I'm concerned. He actually has an interview tomorrow at one of the colleges on his application and the Captain there said he could sign the papers in front of him for the application. Not sure if that'll count as his officer interview or if he still has to interview with his recruiter?
DS had his change 3 Times, and each time things were “lost”. He had to have teachers send stuff several times. It was very frustrating, having to bother teachers/counselors even more than necessary (between ROTC and academies...so thankful teachers/admin were so patient and helpful!). And with each change, he would be in email contact and then BAM, nothing. For a few weeks. Not sure why the changes in recruiters (3). He completed his stuff relatively quickly. It ended up ultimately as a flurry of activity right at interview time, getting stuff sent in again. He ended up completing the whole thing in in time for the first board and received a scholarship first round.
I have read of changes here on the forums. Not sure if it’s normal, but for sure it happens. Make sure you keep copies of everything you send. And get your stuff done sooner rather than later. And DS never interviewed with recruiter, only officer. I wouldn’t expect to have to interview again. He also interviewed at his first choice school. GOOD LUCK!!
