How long is the average wait? I'd like to go in August because that's when the weather will be best in Great Lakes, but I can't sign up until July (I won't be 17 until then). If you can't answer, just reply with how long you waited. I know it's dependant on the openings and the such, but I just wanted a rough guess, to see what I'm in for. Thanks!

If you are a high school graduate you can ship in 30 days, if you have a GED or less you have to wait at least 3 months, The average wait is 6 month and HS Senoirs can wait as long as 15 months. The Recruiters want you to ship ASAP so if are a HS Grad (and don't have a specific job on mind because thats a whole other can of beans) it wont be a problem.

At MEPS they ask you when is the soonest you can leave...Just tell them you cant leave till around August and you will be fine...Good Luck....
