You will want to get the recs next spring so you can submit your packet during the summer.

eco96: Recommend you go to http://www.nrotc.navy.mil/apply.aspx to research the process.

In regards to recommendations you will need three: "1) a guidance counselor/school administrator; 2) a math, science, or English teacher (depending on program option), and 3) another teacher, counselor, coach, or employer. For teachers, please provide the mailing address for the school instead of a home address. These individuals will be provided instructions on how to complete the necessary forms. We will ask these individuals to evaluate you in several areas and to compare you to your peers; they will also have space to provide written remarks. You should select these individuals carefully as weight will be given to their comments." (from the application information checklist pdf file on that site)

Good luck!
