Anyone with any helpful info would be greatly appreciated.
I've been specifically told that Oakland, Alaska and Guam are ALWAYS in need of people! This concerns En Route anyways. So if you want Guam you would get in for sure unless you bomb the AT-SAT I would imagine!
I don't believe Puerto Rico is in need right now. I scored a 99 and selected ZSU as my number one geo preference and did not recieve an offer for there.

All I know is I put in the comments section of my Geo Prefs that I would not be averse to going to Guam, and now that's where I'm going (it was not my first or second choice). I'm pretty excited to be going to Guam :nana2: Just another opportunity to live somewhere different from the norm.
Does guam have a Center or is it just a tower and maybe tracon??
People are coming into my office because of you Rosstafari. Just about every post I've read has made me laugh out loud.Just the guy who goes out on the runway and waves those orange sticks. The rest of the time he drinks pina coladas in a little shack. It's a pretty easy gig, really.
I've talked to three Guam-bound people, and I've been at the academy for two days. Only Alaska bound I know is the guy who sits next to me, and he's stoked to be going there... why, I'll never understand.
I'd say if you don't MIND the idea of Guam/Oakland/Alaska en-route, and you want a good shot at getting picked up, do it. And just list in your comments "willing to go anywhere."
Well I got selected for puerto rico on pubnat 4 with a 93 on my atsat. About a week after I got me pepc invite i got orders to iraq, soo im sure there is at least one opening there.

Id love to go to Guam. My only thing is I wouldnt want to stay there for my entire career. Is it hard to transfer out of Guam back to some where in the states?
Also, where is this Oakland place you speak of? Are you talking about oakland in CA?
Thanks!
lol, if you want to go to Guam, do it - but be prepared to be harassed and belittled by your classmates on a daily basis. We've already started a whole string of "is bigger than Guam" jokes (similar to the inverse of Chuck Norris jokes).
