WOCS questions

[wdemr]

I had a couple of questions on WOCS.

How long is the school and where is it held?

Thanks,

It's been a few years since I went through (1991) but it is held at Fort Rucker at least for the aviation folks and if memory serves it is around 8-12 weeks.

WOCS is
4 weeks long for former NCO's
6 weeks long for all inter-service transfers and e1-e4's

I graduated in October and had fun at WOCS. It is alot of academics and alot of running and marching. You also spend one week eating MRE's in the field.

Yeah WOCS wasn't bad at all. I graduated June 15 from the 4 week course. There's a week of hold so plan on 5 though. They like to run you, so be prepared for that and the rest will happen.

but I graduated from WOCS 11-08 gold class this year so any new questions can be directed here without creating a new forum.

I had to have all these documents completed

The last link - The WOC SOP is your bible. Learn it inside and out; especially when it comes to common area cleanup :)

But seriously learn that guide. It will set you up for success at WOC school and here is my video of my WOC class.

Well i have printed all of the above recommended and after reviewing them i dont know if im either nervous or excited. I have also switched from an enlisted recruiter to an Officer strength manager and i think it might have pissed my Recruiter off? oh well.

Well good luck. The Warrant Officer board is a formality if you have all your ducks (paperwork) in a row with the necessary letters of recommendation. Take care.
