I took almost 10 years to complete my MA due to mil ops tempo. Didn't hear a word about it in the interview. As stated, if you have been working while trying to complete it, I don't think it will be an issue. Otherwise, you might have some explaining to do. I would power through and get it done.

I'm curious as to what quals other guard/reserve heavy drivers are getting the invite at.

I know EPs with low gpa (less than 3.0) that can't get a call yet I got a call in 2013 with 2300 TT and no TPIC. I got a call as a mil copilot and 767 pilot 121. Masters, 4.0, lots of extracurricular, volunteer, etc... Good luck all. The calls will come.
2000 SIC 121 time,700 F-16 with about 3300 total
Bach degree, volunteer, multiple DG awards from flight training, multiple internal recs... Hopefully something soon!

I have a question for those that have re-interviewed.
The letter I got says I have to wait 6 months, but it is slightly unclear. Can I call/email to make the arrangements for the interview prior to 6 months; trying to no kidding interview on the 180th day. Or....
Do I have to wait 6 months to contact them to try and set up the interview.
Thanks.
3 months down.

Know someone who got the call without a masters degree...retired AF and low time and below 3.0 GPA on Bachelors. It's been said here again and again. It isn't one thing but the whole person concept that counts.

If the policy hasn't changed in the last 6 months, you can call at your 5 month anniversary to schedule the first available date on or after your 6 month anniversary.
