Entering the Naval Academy

To enter into the naval academy, you must not be older than 23 on July 1 of the year you start. I turn 23 June 25th. I wanted to know if there is an age waiver for a mere few days.

-Thank You

Your best bet is to contact the admissions office at the USNA and ask them. I'm certain they should be able to help.

Anyone here ever need/get a waiver to attend the Boat school?

I never met anyone who was over the age limit, the closest I knew was 23 on July 2nd.

Of course, make sure you ask, waivers are possible for most everything. Good luck.

Just be ready for Plan B as you're running out of time and, therefore, options.

I'm about to enlist into the Navy. Want to do Special Warfare (S.E.A.L.S). Been pretty much focused on that. Haven't given much thought to anything else (I figured I know what I want, might as well just go for it). Easing up on the gung-ho attitude, I did a little research. Now I'm considering different options going in and, more importantly, about life after the 6 year contract.

If BUD/S and becoming a SEAL is your objective, have you contected a SEAL Motivator? "Going for it" requires a tremendous amount of prep if you want to stand a chance of making it through BUD/S.

I turn 23 on July 9th of next year, and my CO (Academy Grad), CCC, and B&G Officer have all said "You're lucky, you can still apply twice, because there are absolutely no age waivers for the Academy. This was confirmed by my best friend who turns 23 this coming June and was told very specifically by an admissions officer over the phone that there are no age waivers. Just as there are no waivers for being married, or indebtedness.

Just spoke to someone at the academy; there are no age waivers. Had a feeling my other posts would get quoted. Heyjoe, still in school and can't leave to the armed forces until next year. In that time, I'm researching all opportunities available.

Swinging the pendulum the other way.....

I taught a plebe who turned 17 in May and reported to USNA the next month on June 27th...The youngest plebe I've encountered.

I think I know who you are talking about...or at least someone who fits the same criteria. Was the plebe a female in class of 2006?
