hey has anyone who interviewed on 10/29 heard back yet?
Click to expand...
During my interview day on 10/22, we were told that some of us would hear back right before the end of this year and the rest of us would hear back immediately after the new year began (Especially with all of the government holidays during Thanksgiving and December). So I do not think you are going to hear any news until January 2016. (Don't forget the most recent acceptance news on this thread occurred 7 weeks after the interview).
 
It seems like there is some variation of when people hear back. I saw on last years thread some people who interviewed early October hearing back the end of October but also people who interviewed September not hearing anything until mid November. Similar things this year. It looks like it ranges from like 4-8 weeks lol. I wonder why some people hear back sooner than others.
 
So I filled out my medical questionnaire and it says that everything is complete at the end of the survey and then when I go to download the final packet it says that its incomplete. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

I had the same issue. I called the help desk and she said I hadn't even started it lol. Basically, I logged in with a different operating system (Firefox or Chrome I think) and it finally worked.

clearly I have selective hearing because I chose not to hear any of this during my interview... lol
 
Does anyone know the approximate dates for the Navy training camp next summer?

Wow that was a fast response. Hopefully the 10/8 and 10/15 crowd gets a little bit of love this week too!
 
Do they call for waitlist? They called my parents phone number( I guess it was my daytime number when I sent in my AMCAS application) and left a message saying that they wanted to talk to me about my interview and to call back. They called around 2:45 today. I interviewed 10/15
 
Should I wait until Thursday to call back, since tomorrow is Veteran's day? Or should I try tomorrow and see if I get through

I wouldn't wait. You can always call on Thursday if they don't answer tomorrow.

I am guessing they have good news for you! Last year at least waitlist wasn't a phone call.

Happy Veterans Day to the old vets in this group! And if you aren't a vet (yet), thanks for being willing to don that uniform and take care of those in harms way. It takes a special beed and I would be proud to serve with you.

did it take everyone about 10 days to get cleared by dodmerb? or less? mas?

Really not trying to be rude so please don't take it that way but that question has been asked a lot of times in this thread already. Are you checking previous posts?

It seems to be around 2 weeks for most though.

Anyone else from 10/22 here anything? I've been staring at my phone.
 
Yesterday at our interview we were told that all spots had been filled, but last year about 87 people were taken off of the wait-list.

I'm doing the same thing! Looks like acceptances are getting closer to our interview date so maybe next week will be our week!

Does anyone know if acceptances have ever gone out over the weekend?
 
Good Lord I am having extreme ringtone panic attacks, and literal angina over the sound of my email alert. it certainly would be a shame to die of cardiac arrest waiting to find out.:barf:
 
I was complete in August and have not heard about an II or really anything yet, is it a lost cause at this point?

I mean I received the email about "my app being viewed favorably, but them not wanting to send an interview out to me yet". Maybe you're on that? Though I don't know how long into the season interviews went out. Any idea @Glycereine?

I received an ii about 2 weeks ago and it was for Dec 3rd. Assuming the Dec 3rd date was filled, they would still have about a third (7 of 19) of their interview dates still available. The last interview date being Feb 11. So there's definitely plenty of iis still waiting to go out.

Thanks for the insight. While it seems those interviews would most likely be going for the wait list, I definitely think it's still possible. Sent them an update last week so hopefully it helps!

All interviews since the beginning of this month are going for the wait list, but the wait list is not first come first serve, so you still have a chance if you do well in the interview even if you have a very late interview.

Ah I see. Thanks for that! All I can do is wait at this point.
