Hi guys. Hope everybody is well. I am currently a college student and I am interested in serving in the Navy when I graduate. I spoke with a recruiter and found out that BDCP was closed for the FY 2013 year. Does anyone know if it might be open for FY 2014 or later? I graduate in May 2015.
What other options are there for joining the Navy? My school has Army and Air Force but no NROTC. There are no cross town affiliation, and the closest NROTC detachment is 2 hours away. I spoke with a retired officer who I met on campus. He told me that the Marines have a program called Platoons Leaders Class (PLC). The PLC program will allow a college student to go to OCS over the summer and allot a commission. I honestly don't want to go Marines. Does the Navy have something like the PLC? Or could I perhaps commission into the Navy after attending PLC? I also looked into CEC and NUPOC but I am interested in being an SNA/NFO, so CEC and NUPOC won't work.
Thanks.
