I graduated PA school in August became board certified August 31st. My application for direct commision in the Army was sent off in September and I was notified that I was approved by the board at the end of October. All I am waiting for now is my scroll to come back from congress and I'm getting stir crazy with the wait. Anybody have any idea how much longer I have to wait for the scroll to come back?

I have a similar question. I commissioned via FAP for 60W general surgeon (I'm a PGY 3 in residency now). I signed my contract back in June 2020. Had to go back to MEPS because the process up to that point took so long that my original physical had expired. Everything was sent in back in September. Now it's February 2021 and still haven't received orders, stipend etc. Is this usual?

I’m getting stir crazy too. Congratulations on your selection. I am a NP and was selected to go Active ( Currently reserves). I got promoted to CPT in the reserves, and so they had to submit a new scroll, and it was submitted last month. I’m really hoping I hear something by April. Congratulations.
