I'm not in... yet.
I've pretty much got all the paperwork done, barring one last vision check, another copy of my transcript, and my PRT. My recruiter thinks I have a pretty good shot since I'm going for intelligence with a double-major, a GPA of 3.71, OAR 65, management experience, and letters of reference showing my ability to adapt to foreign countries and new environments.
I'm 26, I've worked as an IT developer and project manager with absolutely no formal training in tech. Apparently, that sounds pretty darn good on the whole-person thing.

Thats great cyphertube!! I believe I will be trying for the Intel area as well. However, I am little concerned because my Major is Criminal Justice. I do have a 3.8 GPA and a lot of management experience. My age window is a little tighter than yours because I am 28. I am finding that most communities have a lower age limit so I am limited on what designation I can go into. I still have about a year before I can start the BDCP paperwork march. Let me know how your application goes and if you have any tips it would be appreciated.
Yeah this age thing is really starting to tick me off. I am only qualified for three officer communities because of my age. Though Intel and Crypto sound cool I was really hoping for SWO or Subs. Of course, I would pretty much do anything the Navy wanted because of this BDCP. 
No other job is willing to pay me to go to school and offer me a cool job.
No other job is willing to pay me to go to school and offer me a cool job.BDCP is a great program. I bought a new truck and a dirt bike, and all I have to do is sit on my ass assured that (providing I finish OCS and pass NAMI) I'll be an officer in the Navy and a pilot. I was blessed to get in when I did because I've heard there are no more slots until the end of this year. There really aren't any catches to the program. My friends, military and civilian, cannot believe the deal that I have going for me. If you can get in, take it. Military experience is invaluable in life and you will also not feel bad while you're behind a desk regretting never being part of the world's number 1 Navy power. Good luck to all.
hey my name is learlino bluitt and I took the astb on august 23 but I came up 6 points short my recruiter didn't tell me to prepare for math like I should can anyone help me outon math or remember anything? I am a crim. justice major and my gpa is 3.3 and I am going for supply or intell my email address is dubugg2@yahoo.com and I get off active duty nov 3
I also used the MGI Bill for school while in the BDCP. I have had no message that I have to repay the money, but I made sure that I qualified for the MGI Bill benefit before I took advantage of it. This is sounding very strange to me. Hopefully you can work this out, as $8000 is a LOT of money for college students! Let us know.

I just recently got into BDCP and my recruiter told me that I would be eligible for MGIB only AFTER OCS. My contribution from my paycheck (up to 1200 total) does not begin until then either. There seems to be some conflicting information here...
To make a long story short? You were kidding, right? I'm just giving you a hard time. I'm glad you got it all sorted out. It's funny how they don't want to give you money you're entitled to get and they're contractually obligated to give to you...hmmm, a little shady. What's weird is all the time I've got in the military is BDCP time, but I gave my paperwork to the VA lady at my university and never had to give it a second thought...$900/month for my senior year (and it was just after my 2 year date). It's funny, you actually earned it more than I did, but you had to jump through hoops to get it. At least you got it, though!
