Air Force announces OTS rated selection board 15OT01 results Published March 20, 2015 By Air Force Recruiting Service JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-RANDOLPH, Texas -- A total of 228 men and women from across America have earned an opportunity to become Air Force leaders following their selection for an officer's commission, officials announced today. Air Force Recruiting Service officials considered 453 applications as part of the Officer Training School Rated Selection Board 15OT01. With the board's selection rate of 50.33 percent, 228 applicants were selected to serve as U.S. Air Force officers. Of the 228 selected, 50 enlisted members earned the chance to attend OTS and trade their stripes for gold bars as second lieutenants. As part of the selection process, board members review both objective and subjective factors. Objectively, the board considers each applicant's academic discipline, grade point average and Air Force Officer Qualifying Test scores. Subjectively, board members evaluate work experience, accomplishments, adaptability, character, leadership ability, potential for future growth and other recommendations. For active-duty enlisted members, performance reports and commanders' recommendations are also evaluated. Three Air Force colonels review every application. The selection process is similar to an Air Force officer promotion board. No single factor leads to an individual's selection or non-selection, according to OTS selection officials. Candidates selected can expect to attend OTS at Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, in 2016. For more information concerning OTS and the application process, active-duty members should visit the officer training website on the Air Force Portal; civilians should contact the nearest Air Force recruiter.
