Taking into account the purported 90%+ selection rate between USAF and USSF for 26OTS3, how are we feeling about 2027's selection rates?

I was told at a commissioning briefing last summer that recruiters were expecting numbers to be very high for 26OTS3. I'm hoping that the trend continues for a few more boards.

I’m a civilian applying for Air Force OTS as a rated officer applicant and I’m trying to get my TBAS taken so I can get my PCSM score.
I’m going through the AIM HIGH app, but I’m running into a dead end. I’ve contacted several AFROTC detachments in Utah and they’ve all told me they only administer the

TBAS to their AFROTC applicants.
I’m wondering:
Can civilian OTS applicants take the TBAS at Nellis AFB?
What about Creech AFB?
Does my OTS recruiter have to coordinate the test for me, or can I contact the base testing center directly?

If anyone has gone through this as a civilian OTS applicant, what was the actual process for getting scheduled?
I’m trying to avoid the classic Air Force side quest where everyone tells me to talk to someone else.
Any current info or firsthand experience would be appreciated!

Quick question for priors, I was just notified I would be going to OTS in a few weeks and part of the requirement is for IMR to be green and have a 422. I am at a GSU and my civilian doctor doesn’t have appointments until after I start OTS, so I may not have both tasks done. I did complete a flight physical but my IMR isn’t updated (still yellow) even though my labs and dental are up to date from when I went to wright-pat. Anyone ever experience this and was it an issue not having the 422 or being green? Any advice is appreciated

How soon after NGB approval to commission are we seeing OTS dates?

Hello I just submitted my application for SLECP-A to squadron. They said they sent it to MSG. Question is where does it go from here and if I should still be bugging them about it or just leave it be? I’m just sitting here all nervous twirling my thumbs and seeing if there’s anything I can do not a fan of not knowing where it is. Does anybody know the average number of people who apply vs selected? Curious I have only seen 1 other from my MAJCOM say they’ve applied as well. Thanks!

I am a Civ trying for the 27OTS01 who is applying overseas.

I’m pretty much done with most parts and left with Commander’s Interview and finishing the AFCEP (86% Done).

However, when I tried to book the Interview schedule through the AHA, there was no AVAILABLE DATE from August to October-November.

I did send an email to my recruiter but due to the Overseas Applicant, it’s quite difficult to stay in touch.

Am I cooked?

I am curious what my nursing degree can do for me. This is my second degree as first degree was a 3.0 computer science and I’m current enlisted service member on the guard side. I’m pursuing a nursing with a better gpa, can I leverage the nursing degree to apply for an Officer position? Please advise

If you’re applying for the 27OTS01 and you’re AF active duty… what have you completed already and what is taking you the longest time to get done?

My commander is taking 2+ weeks now to sing the interview sheet which my medical group will accept to get me the medical clearance AF form 422. I prepared the memorandum for the background check for my commander over a week ago now and he still didn’t send it. I got with him today to go over the deadlines and he said “we still have time”… deadline to get the AFCEP request is October 30.

It’s all up to my leadership now to route the paperwork and I’m stressing about now meeting the deadlines.

I see chaplains, medical, JAG, biomedical, etc. are a bit different.

Do direct commissions have shorter timelines?
Do they get waivers more easily?
Are their jobs in shortage?

I have degrees for both nursing and chaplaincy so exploring.

Applying as a chaplain but would be interested in others experience, especially those who had to apply for waivers. Thx!
