Has anyone heard of enrollment in BDCP while pursuing a Masters Degree? I am interested enrolling in BDCP before my Senior year and then continuing it for an extra year to get my Masters. Is this unheard of, or commonplace, or neither? Any info. would be much appreciated.

The way you plan on doing it, I would say no. However, I do know the CEC will let you do it in your second year of grad school if pursuing a masters (CEC collegiate program), and you can do it with the NUPOC program as well. But you have to already be in grad school, the Navy won't pay for your senior year, let you graduate, and then pay you for your extra year of grad school.

Well, I was just asking because I will be applying for a 2005 SNA slot, hopefully by the end of this week (I am waiting on referrals to come in), and have been getting the impression that slot availablity has been getting tight. Who knows. Anyways, thanks for the feedback. By the way, I have never heard of CEC, is that a graduate level program?

From what I heard with my recruiter is that once you serve your first sea duty, you can apply and I guess depending on what program your in they will pay full time to go to school for up to two years, I may be wrong on this but I don't think so if my memory serves me correct.

Kycntryboy,

You're right about that, however, as a Naval Aviator, you can't afford to go to grad school for your shore duty. It's a career killer.

Oh I wasn't going to do it, my OSO did tell that if I did do it to do it early that way it would not hurt my chances of getting promoted. But I hate school now there is now I could stay away from my plane from more that a month (to take a vacation).
