For prior military applicants:

prior waivers attainable but, all applicants must were a cardigan/sweater over their shoulders and maintain a clueless "college boy" appearance at all times.

Due to the tainted nature of these individuals it and the highly competitive nature of the program these applicants it is not reccommended for you to apply.

Did you get that off an admirals desk? That looks pretty accurate....

"praying to the SNA board gods couldn't hurt...."

I recieved this message traffic from the top......but seriously guys I am still motivated to go Navy but, I'm thinking the climate isn't ripe for me to get selected. I'm applying again in six months but I am also going to call the USCG.... for assistance. I called the Marines but they have no ground slots. I can't be an aviator right now because I have contacts. I really want to be a hardcore sailor. (i know i know sounds crazy right....Well Horatio Hornblower is the coolest") Man when I got out of the navy in 99'. All I heard was comeback in 3-4 years with a degree and they'll take you as a SWO easy. Man things sure have changed.. With these higher "standards" I think to many fine applicants get passed over because a number or two wasn't high enough.

man the wait is killing me

Damn, I'm screwed. My SAT was only 1540. Do you think I can get that waivered?

Don't give up Goliath. I know exactly what you're talking about. I got out in '99 too. I remember thinking to myself as I walked out the gate that if things didn't work out I would just get my degree and come back as an O. Sounded easy enough at the time.

Goliath, what did you mean by the Marines have no ground slots? The Marines are my second choice and I am going to start the application process next week. How are aviation slots looking?

Marti and Goliath112,

Did you guys applied while you were in? I will be just like you. I am getting out too in a few months to complete my degree. Do you guys have any advice for me? Lessons learned stuff..?

Will I have better chances of becoming an "O" if I get out?(since the Navy don't have to spend a penny to send me to school).
Right now I can get LOR's and support from 0-6's who knows me and even an Admiral (active CO) if I apply. But the active ECP's really suck[xx(]!

 

[DDriver]

And when I get out I will come back with a high GPA in Tech'l Degree plus my flying license. I think the old ECP's are a lot better than the stupid STA-21.

hey gsavy, I don't know about Aviation slots in the corp. But, I was told by the Oso's that ground slots are filled. Sorta like SWO for the Navy. I hear that they have aviation slots though.

DDriver, the only advice I have is to get all A's in school. One C or F can really go a long way in screwing you. Don't have breaks in between school. (take the summer terms).

man the wait is killing me

 

[Goliath112]

no waivers marti. its only waiverable if you get a 1599 and 1/2. if you lost the 1/2 point cause you miss-spelled your name then you're screwed.

man the wait is killing me

I'm glad I got in when the minimums were much lower!!!!! I don't think I could compete now.
