Hi there! Is anyone else out there being submitted to the April/May 2012 fully qualified boards?? I say April/May because at first my recruiter told me the board met at the end of April, but last I spoke with him he said first week of May. This is my...

Here is the page. Looks like there's one in October. http://www.au.af.mil/au/holmcenter/OTS/Classdates.asp

If you go to the COT website I think the 2013 dates are posted.

My best advice is apply and whatever will be will be. And if you don't get selected, don't give up!! It was a 1.5 year process for me before I got selected. No one quite understands selection criteria. I personally believe they are looking for eviden...

Then I'll definitely be spending my 30th birthday at COT! What a way to ring in a new decade!

Does anyone know the date we are finished with COT? Just trying to figure out if I'll be spending my 30th birthday with all of you fine people!! :-)

Anybody know anything about Langley? I know nothing haha! And my google searches aren't helpful.

Just found out today I'll be joining everyone in August as well!! I'm ecstatic but sad at the same time because I was supposed to be leaving for a 2 week vacation to London on Aug 27 (which i already paid for) but now I guess I'm going to COT! My rec...

Haha my trainer is at Bonnaroo right now and I texted her and said "have fun this weekend but when you get home it's game on!!" I'm going to celebrate at the Red Hot Chili Peppers concert tonight, then tomorrow it's nothing but working out so I won't...

Guess who just got the good news?!?!? I'm going to COT in August!! I'm so excited!! Going to be stationed at Langley!!!

Thanks for the info! That's actually very helpful and the first time anyone has actually explained it like that. So is that the same process if you are non-selected? Are the results released at the same time? I'm not scared to talk to my recruiter at...

rndiver82, did your recruiter have any updates today? I wish I could talk to mine but he's a 3 hour drive away in Nashville, plus I'm too nervous to ask him anything right now.

I'm just hoping to hear by the end of the week. Fortunately I don't work again until Friday so my patients won't have to suffer this mood. Random question, does anyone know, if I initially said I'd take the signing bonus, am I locked into that? Or ca...

Haven't heard from mine. I've been in a hideous mood this past week. Being in career limbo is really starting to take its toll.

My recruiter also said they met last week and he expects a decision any day now. So I'm not sure what to think! Just praying for a selection no matter what!

They send out a list before the board meets that says how many spots they have for each discipline. I think it may have some flexibility but I could be wrong. What state are you in? My recruiter texted me Monday to tell me good luck and that he was p...

The week is finally over! I'm just happy knowing that a decision has been made, either way! Here's hoping those 3 spots belong to us! Everyone enjoy the holiday weekend!I'll be working the majority of it, but at least it's time and a half on Monday! ...

Nope but I haven't worked since Sunday. Have a meeting tomorrow so I guess my boss will tell me then! Did you provide them with any info about the size of your hospital/ER or typical volume? Last boards they called me and asked me questions about tha...

I meant if you heard anything about the board not meeting this week like they were supposed to! I figured your recruiter would let you know if he heard anything about that. I'm not expecting to hear about a decision until June, holiday weekend or not...

So the week is finally upon us! Fingers crossed it actually happens!! Let us know if you hear from your recruiter, RNdiver82! He seems to keep you pretty updated! Good luck to everyone!!

I think that may be an NTP problem, but then again I could be wrong. The folks I know who have been selected all went to COT fairly soon after being selected, within a few months. I put I couldn't go until Oct which seems long enough. I'd die if it w...

I'm fairly certain, if I'm remembering correctly, that it only took a little over a week for my recruiter to tell me I wasn't selected in August. And he didn't think it would take much more than a week for a decision to reach us this go around either...

No idea. I think he's annoyed by my constant stressing, haha. He says I need to focus on things I can control. He's still confident I've done what I needed to to get selected, but I'm not. Oh well. Just a few more weeks!!

Yes, my recruiter just confirmed. Apparently, it doesn't change anything but it's to give recruiters more time to get their "suspense items" in. And give the recruits more time to have a heart attack. Ugh I was just so ready to have this decision ove...

Finally!! Decision week is upon us!! Good luck guys!! Hopefully the 3 ER spots will be filled by the 3 of us!! Please post any news or updates. I'm not too good at the hurry up and wait thing! Also I think my recruiter may be on a cruise so he's no h...
