Hello everyone! I noticed that there are several posts out there in regards to commisioned officer training (COT) that are helpful. There is an august 2011 cot thread, and I just thought that I would start the October 2011 COT thread.Along with other...

I flew to cot and then to Cincinnati for NTP. You will be fine without a car, since you will be staying at a four-star hotel (Marriott) which is within walking g distance to UC Health. They also have a complimentary shuttle that drives a good radius ...

Thank you! I am at SAMMC, since Feb. and hope to do the fellowship here as the next step. I know you have to state in writing that you will be pcs'ed but I wouldn't mind staying. Do you know if staying here is an option? I like it here. What do you r...

I have been contemplating what to do...I will be changing afsc to 46N3 soon and am currently in med./surg. And have been asked what I want to do after. I want to ultimately become a crna, but want to do the ICU fellowship before. I have had many peop...

I am stationed at Lackland and working in SAMMC. We are living in Cibolo. We have a kindergarten and 2nd grader going to Randolph elem. It takes me about 15-20 min. To drive to SAMMC. This is a very nice place for kids.

Hello! Just wondering if anyone knows anything about weight requirements when you get to COT. For some reason I am stressing about possibly not making the weight/height ratio. I was never at my height/weight ratio, even when I played sports and did p...

Thank you guys so much! I really don't feel like they should be looking at my weight if I can pass my pt test in the excellent category. I can see if I really fail it and it is in relation to my weight. It is such a relief to hear this, and it does m...

Thanks for the reply. I am actually leaving for COT in less than a month. I passed my meps by weight but have been lifting weights since, and gained weight. I read that the air force measurement needs to be less than 20. I can't find any official do...

Ok. Just message me your fb name and I can look you up and add you on. We are trying to get everyone in our COT class together.

this is how I feel. I submitted my fed. background check aftergetting accepted in April and signed everything I needed to. I havebeen waiting ever since then. I spoke to my recruiter last week and he said that a bunch of us had our names mixed up alo...

Thank you! This is awesome. Any more?

No, its not the same. This is just to let them know you want the offer. If not, then they will give it to the next person in line. You will still need to fill out the big fbi clearance packet. You will also do a digital signature in on the computer w...

When, I applied for the job, they were aware of my plans and when I will be leaving. But I would ask your recruiter and see what he or she says about it. due to military orders I hear it is better to not resign, because it allows you to get your job ...

Awesome news everyone! Congrats to all who just found out. I have been wondering since the april board, who else was going to oct. 17 cot with me. I think I know who this asian dude from hawaii is. Hahaha...you guys should check out the thread I star...

Thanks, I emailed my recruiter to see if I could commission now. I hope I am able to. Did you get your military ID yet? I heard that some people were able to get that before leaving for COT.

I see, that makes sense.

I see, that makes sense.

Congrats! I didn't realize that there were only so few. I wonder why? I feel so blessed to have this great opportunity. My whole family is excited as I am. This has been a very long process and I just feel so misinformed. I am constantly reading thes...

Wow! My friend has a similar situation and is finishing up his FNP over the summer and is still waiting to see when he will be leaving for cot. He is doing the hpsp too but was not in the reserves prior. He has no work experience and will be a1st lie...

Awesome! I was beginning to think this class didn't have many nurse selections for COT. It is nice to network and get info like the guys leaving in august. Are you a new grad going to ntp? Where are you going, and where will you be stationed? Did yo...

I really wouldn't mind staying in lackland. I know that NEU has a good reputation too. My recruiter said that my current gpa of 3.5 is enough to get me in, but is there anything thing else that they look at in my past application to AF? Like my lette...

15 slots for the AF? Which one did you go to? How long did it take for you to get in? I am a new grad just got selected in the April boards, and will be in COT in Oct. 17 and doing NTP from Nov. to Feb. at Cincinnati Univ. Hospital. I am stationed in...

Do you know which military program has the better chance at getting in for an AF applicant? I looked on the usagpan website and I don't see any application for usaf. Also how many are selected per year from AF?

What are the different military crna schools available to active duty air force rn's? What states or stations? I know NEU is a very good one that accepts a couple AF applicants each year. Are there any other ones? I also know that there is one in Mar...

Thanks tee-byrd, please let me know what your recruiter says, and possibly any link or resource I can show my recruiter. He seems pretty sure on the 30 day rule.
