That brings me to today. My application is in, and I was told the selection committee went over all packets during the last week of October.... so any day I hope to hear the results. There are 3 potential outcomes:
1. Accepted and pending scroll (I was told this is where congress reads your name... essentially you go into the congressional history book as a commissioned officer)
2. OML (order of merit list) this is a wait list, if anyone accepted declines the commission they may go to this list and select the next highest ranked candidate.
3. Rejected, there really isn't a nice way to put this so I will just leave this as is.... I will say that when you first talk to the recruiter they ask for your CV and submit that to headquarters to see if they want you to apply. If you were asked to apply I'm guessing unless there is a medical hold or big issue in your application that all non selected applicants would be placed in order of value to the army on the OML.
Well that's all for now, instead of Hurry up and WAIT, it's just WAIT right now... and keeping my fingers crossed that my desire to join the army and the skills I have learned are both of use and wanted.
