When are evaluations for E-3 and below typically due?

Evaluations for E-3 and below are typically due on July 15th each year, aligning with the annual reporting cycle. This timing is set to ensure that all enlisted personnel receive timely feedback on their performance and are given ample opportunity to address any areas of improvement before the evaluation becomes part of their service record. Keeping evaluations consistent within this timeframe helps maintain uniformity across the service and allows for better planning and review practices, as well as aligning with any summer training cycles or deployments that may occur.

This schedule is crucial for the overall process of professional development and progression within the Navy, ensuring that all sailors are evaluated in a timely manner and can plan for their futures accordingly. The other dates do not correspond to the standardized timeline set forth for evaluation submissions in this category.
