I recently was notified by the Army that I am on the OML for dental HPSP. This came as a bit of a surprise because my numbers (3.8/22 AA) are historically fairly above average for Army HPSP recipients and I believed my application was strong overall. Both my recruiter and his commanding officer seemed very confident I would be awarded the scholarship from the moment I began my packet, but so far that hasn't happened. I don't need any waivers or anything like that, although I didn't get an acceptance letter from a dental school until after the board met, which I know can have an effect on results.
I would like to hear from people who got placed on the OML and later got accepted. What were your numbers, when did you get off the OML, and whether or not you think my chances of making it off OML are decent. It sounds like 5-10 people will turn down their offer in favor of either the Air Force or the Navy.
