I'm so glad I've found a site where it has everything I need. But I was doing some searching and I just couldn't find the questions and answers that best fit my situation.
Well, I've only been in the Navy for about 18months. I'm an E-3. And I'm pretty certain this will be a career for me, I cannot see me doing anything else only because I've fell in love with this life. I've grown as a person because of the Navy and it has been suggested that I go the officer route. I would love the opportunity to become an officer, everything I've been involved in lately has been motivated by my desire to put in a package/application.
The only thing is I have no college and my ACT scores are too outdated. I signed up for the June ACT testing but there is no guarantee I'll have my test scores back before the deadline. Is there a way to submit a late package and if so, does that ruin my chances of selection? I know when submitting a package for the Naval Academy, you don't need any previous college to be accepted but is it one of those things where if you do have previous college your chances of acceptance are greater?
My high school GPA was around a 3.2. Yeah it's pretty low, I didn't take high school very seriously and I was hoping that that wouldn't hurt me now that I've got my head on straight and want to serve my country as an officer. I really would appreciate some pointers, suggestions/tips that would help me put together a pretty good package. The guy in charge of the officer commissioning program at my command didn't know very much seeing as he just took over it and is still learning. So a friend of mine told me about this site.
So much help is appreciated. Thanks.
