Hello all. I had a question about the physics requirement for IW and Nuke. I understand that the application process is very different for these two communities so information on either will be appreciated. I'm currently the captain of a commercial fishing vessel in Alaska (hence the name) so I'm very interested in SWO. In particular I would really like to put in applications for SWO-IW or SWO nuke. I have a BA in political science and a BS in Economics from Gonzaga University so I have a good deal of math courses under my belt but I have not taken any physics. It is my understanding that two semesters of college physics is required for both of these programs. I was wondering if anyone has experience with getting these requirements waved. I have an overall GPA of 3.65 and scored a 71/8/8/8 on the ASTB. I also have a good deal of experience with R as well as some exposure to Python so I believe that I will be capable of excelling in either of these programs but am currently up against the physics requirement. Any input is greatly appreciated.
