How long does it normally take to contract as an SMP Cadet?

Former SMP Cadet’s, I’m curious to know how long did it actually take you to contract? I recently sent in my application about 2 weeks ago, and I haven’t heard anything back from the school recruiter yet, so I’m just curious.

It shouldn’t take too long honestly. I’d call back and see if they can speed the process up. It only took me a few days

Former PMS John here - Two Qs: (1) are you already accepted/enrolled as student at this campus? (2) Have you completed the DODMERB medical piece? "Contracting" itself is usually not the long pole. Getting accepted at the school and getting medically cleared are the parts of the process that normally muck it up!
