My recruiter said we should find out by the first week of April!
I was told that they were meeting early March. I finished my interview last week.
The Air Force does it much differently from the other branches of the military. Since there are less spots for the Air Force, they only have one board date. In the past, that date has been in February. However, this year the board date is in March. Anyone entering dental school in 2015, applying for the 4 year scholarship, will be reviewed by the board on the same day in March. My recruiter also said he wanted to have everything in by Feb. 20th. even though it isn't officially due til the 27th. I don't know about the 3 year scholarships for people in their 2nd year of dental school. Maybe it is their board date that is in February this year. However, the only thing that matters is that your application was in on time, even if it was a little early... your recruiter was just on top of things it sounds like!
What state are you from?
There are only 12 four year scholarships available this year for the entire nation...I am from NC. I have no idea how many other applicants my recruiter had, or how many spots are available
I can confirm this as well. Sometimes they will take 1 extra, but honesetly I doubt it will happen.
cGPA = 3.92
12 is the number that was confirmed multiple times to me by my recruiter and interviewer. As far as what they look at most heavily, I don't know. I got the impression they really want well roundedness, coupled with the smarts. They want someone they could go to battle with, and as we all know, geniuses don't always have the best street smarts or "military potential" or "battleground potential". Great job on the DAT though, you destroyed it. I hope your interview went well and that you are given one of the twelve spots. Good luck!
Not that I know of... Have you?
I haven't talked to any of mine, and I don't plan on it, haha... I don't know how they would reach my references if they wanted to, however. I don't remember them explicitly being asked to give their contact info and I didn't read the letters they wrote for me...No, none of my references have been contacted.... which makes me nervous
It seems like my recruiter told me 50 or 60 3 years and only 12 4 years so I would say the 3 year odds are better. For other branches such as army and navy there are many more 4 years...
