When can I expect to hear back from the Prime Power Schoolhouse (12P) in regards to my packet submission?

My family and I have a lot planned over the next few months, including my wife re-enlisting after being out of service for a few years now. Does anyone have a general timeline am I looking at to hearing back from the schoolhouse about my application packet, based on your experiences?

Hey SGT Maddox,
I remember submitting my packet in October 2016 for the January 31st deadline for the August 2017 Class (002-17) that I am currently in. I didn't hear back from the school until right after the deadline via email from Mrs. Dent who told me that they are reviewing my packet. A few weeks later I was able to do the 1SG interview (I was in Germany at the time). I was told on the phone that he was going to recommend me for enrollment and I finally got my acceptance letter about a month after that, around mid-March 2017. I re-enlisted and was locked in about another month later, around the end of April 2017. Hope this helps ease your anxiety. Do not expect to hear from the schoolhouse about admissions before the deadline you are applying for. Good luck!

Sgt Maddox,

It took me about 6 months to get my acceptance letter after the submission of my packet. I submitted my packet August 2017 and recently got my acceptance letter for the August 2018 class. My wife and I were in a very similar situation as you and your wife. Waiting on the result of my packet to see what we needed to do. Ms. Dent was extremely helpful when it came to information. I highly recommend contacting her. She eased my mind during the waiting process on multiple occasions. When did you submit your packet?
