Hello All,
I’m a college Junior, who is strongly considering the Navy as my career choice. I’ll be applying for OCS within a year or so, and wanted to get some honest opinions outside of a recruiter’s office.
My degree will be in International Affairs, and I’ll graduate with around a 3.85 GPA. I’ve got my letters or recommendation lined up from several professors that I’ve done academic research with, and a family friend who’s a current Captain in the Navy. I’m in great shape; I played high school soccer for all 4 years, and continue to play just about every sport my university’s intramural program offers. I’ve volunteered at hospitals and I am currently a youth soccer coach.
I’d love to be a pilot; only obstacle is my vision. I’ll be having PRK done in the summer, so if all goes well on the table, I hope to be granted a waiver. I’ve yet to take the ASTB, but am currently preparing with practice books and such. If the Navy says no to my pilot ambition, I wouldn’t mind going the Intel or NFO route either.
Is there anything else I can really improve on? Or any general advice you can give me? I appreciate your time and effort for looking this over!
Thanks, Kyle
