Spoke with recruiter today

Met with a recruiter today about commissioning as an officer. He mentioned it’s a pretty competitive and rigorous process to get selected and the next board is coming up in June so I have till about May to get everything together. I think I’m a pretty good candidate but I have no prior service, only a bachelors degree in finance but have always wanted to serve in some capacity. What are your guys input in the process and if I do not get picked up should I just enlist or keep trying? My end goal is to finish out my accounting degree and get a masters and get back into the civilian world. I want to do atleast one contract to prove to myself I can do it and also just to say I did it. Thanks for any input and if I need to elaborate on anything please let me know.
