When you are in the Nuclear Pipeline, when can you take the OAR? I assume it occurs sometime during A school. On the OCS application for NUPOC, it said that you needed an 1140 combined SAT score. Do you still need this score even if you already have a degree? Also, can anybody out there give me some advice for getting accepted into NUPOC. What looks good in your package? People tell me that "leadership roles in a volunteering capacity" look good in your package. What else will help. Obviously you have to interview well and have the letters of recommendation. Any information you could give would be greatly appreciated.

There is a speed limit when taxing officer?
I think you are confused? The STA program is for enlisted personal that do not have their 4 year degree. The 1140 SAT score is for the STA program. Enlisted personal with a degree apply for OCS.
Did you read Steve Wilkins post in your previous topic? He stated this. http://www.airwarriors.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5822
“If you wouldn't be content serving your entire contract in the enlisted ranks, I suggest you don't enlist. If you would be content, then it may not be a bad idea, knowing you can work towards your goal to become an officer.” -dsweeney, Airwarriors member.
“o. Individuals who have already obtained their baccalaureate degree are not eligible for STA-21 and should apply directly for Officer Candidate School (OCS). OCS application procedures can be found in Chapter 4.” OPNAVINST 1420.1A chapter 8 STA

yep, NUPOC stands for Nuclear Propulsion Officer Candidate. You don't need to take the OAR if you are NUPOC. To screen for the DC interview, you basically need a technical degree (Biology, Physic, Chem, any ENG degree) and a GPA of 3.0 basically shoes you in, I know of people with 2.8 that got it. This isn't a college application, they just want to see if you can hack it at nuclear power school.
Does it say you need a technical degree in the instruction?

Programs
Opportunities exist to serve aboard submarines or surface ships, serve as an instructor at the Navy's prestigious Nuclear Power School in Charleston, SC, or as an engineer on staff at Naval Reactors in Washington, D.C. Program benefits vary.
Qualified college students can earn a substantial signing bonus and receive a salary of over $2,500 a month for up to 30 months prior to graduation for some programs.
Training
The Navy's highly technical nuclear power training program is recognized as one of the best in the world. For future submariners and surface warfare officers, your exciting future begins with Officer Candidate School (OCS) in Pensacola, Fla. Upon completion of OCS, you'll be commissioned as an Ensign in the Navy and begin your career as a Naval Officer. One year of advanced nuclear power training follows, starting with six months of graduate level classroom training at Charleston, SC. After establishing your theoretical knowledge, you'll have six months of practical training at one of the Navy's two shore-based reactor training facilities in either upstate New York or in South Carolina. Following completion of your specialized nuclear power training, you'll attend the Naval Submarine School at Groton, CT, or the Surface Warfare Officer School at Newport, RI.
Eligibility
Program eligibility requirements vary. If you are a U.S. citizen, attending or have graduated from an accredited college or university in the United States or United States Territory, less than 29 years of age, and can meet basic physical requirements, you may already be qualified. For some programs, you may apply as early as your sophomore year after completing one academic year of calculus and one academic year of calculus-based physics.
