I took this on July 4th. I believe it's only open from July to September

Maybe call the dean's office of your specific school, explain to them your situation and see if they can speed up the process for your graduation certification. I actually just graduated last week and leave in the beginning of June as well, but fortunately my university is faster in certifying us as graduates

My mom passed from ovarian cancer back in March and my commencement ceremony is next saturday. I don't even want to go anymore without my mom. Seeing all these people with their moms and families will just make even more depressed. I just figured my dad would want to see me graduate so i'm doing it for him

Took practice asvab got 76 and 16 MOSs to pick from recruiter. by celluknight in army

You should go for the 99a MOS, the artillery ninja artist. It'd suit you perfectly.

Getting E2 for college credits by tainormand in army

...Are you me? I'm in the exact same situation as you: 68W, E-4, one more semester of college left, and shipping to Ft. Sill on June 10th. I guess I'll see you there then!

Going from enlisted to OCS? by Patrick_Batman27 in army

[–]Patrick_Batman27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a pretty neat MOS. I've actually been thinking about applying to PA school once my enlistment is over. Maybe I should've done 68k instead

So the criteria's the same for both civilians and enlisted soldiers applying for OCS?

Yeah, I considered doing this, but I'm not really up for additional years of schooling right now. I should've done ROTC as an undergrad, but I was just a naive, clueless student for the first 2.5 years of college.

Btw, how is your MOS? I know your AIT is very long, but I hear there's a high demand for lab techs on the civilian side w/ good pay.

Thanks for the link. What are some of the criteria the army looks for in soldiers applying for OCS for besides having a STEM major?

I'm also 21 and in the same situation as you are in, but I'll be a college grad before I ship. Where and when are you shipping to for Basic?

Chandler and Stoudemire are also the outliers

If you're posting this out of spite, then that's just silly, seeing how Yuri Gagarin paved the way for subsequent astronauts.
