I am stuck in a sticky situation. I dont know what to do.
Im 19 year old freshman in college playing D1 vball. I was going to try to apply for OCS in the coast guard but after finding out that 30 or so out of 3,000 get selected, my chances are not seeming so well anymore. Is Navy OCS any better?
Ultimate Goal : Become the best officer I can. But.....FLY! Coastguard - Helicopters, Navy - Helicopters first, but would be happy with a jet as well.
What is my first step? Wait? Im not 21 yet so I cant even think about applying, and I wont have my degree till im 22 (business management).
As far as Im concerned the only way I can become a military aviator (I wouldnt consider enlisting then trying to apply for OCS) is to go OCS in air force, marines, coast guard, or army warrant officer/ army ocs.
What is this ROTC all about? Is it too late? Is it easier getting into?
Websites are lacking information, and I cant get a hold of recruiters for the life of me. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
