Waiting on last few signatures on my packet and will be turning it in. Assuming I’ll be accepted will my wife be able to move with me? Super upset about me being away for almost a year. Career counselor said TDY enroute but it’s a super long school.

Most schools are tdy enroute, but schools over 20 weeks in length are PCS length courses.

Both Pensacola and Gordon are PCS moves. You’ll be able to take your family with you, just like I and many others were.

JCAC was a lot of information over a small period of time, but still doable. Phase 2 in Gordon was structured better IMO, but challenging as well.

As far as getting picked up, I was 11B when I submitted my packet, no certs, and about 60 hours into a degree.

It took about 1 month before I heard back through my career counselor, and I ended up at Gordon. Check out ACT and look at duty station positions to get a good idea of where you’ll end up.

I just turned in my packet as well for 17C. From my understanding it’s a PCS for phase 1 and 2. Good luck on selection. Still waiting to hear back from my packet

Reclassing to 17C, is PCSing to school an option?

Any school 180 days or longer is considered a PCS move so your family will be able to go with you.

I believe it still fall in the category of a PCS move, however, you can talk to someone at the 17C school for verification.SPC (Join to see)
