An update to the story: I was not selected for this upcoming OCC Class 223 or preselected for OCC 225 but I do plan to reapply and if that does not work, I will try to enlist. Thanks for everything.

Hi everyone. Hope your weekend is going well. Just another payback funds question: is it better to enlist or pay back the money if you are separated from a device academy especially USNA. I know a lot of branches( USMC, USAF, USN) are not taking the RE-3K code currently. USA is waiverable but...

This is so sad. To think this started when I got there, went to a court marshall when I was separated, and now this. Not that it's surprising but still, it's somewhat shocking, even for USNA standards of scandal.

Yes I am turning 25 in a month.

Hi I know this may be a long shot of a question but I was wondering if anyone knew about Nursing ROTC scholarships. I already have 2 bachelors degrees but neither are in Nursing. I was wondering if anyone knew if any ROTC's would be open to taking people with prior bachelors degrees into the...

Hi, I'm a former Mid and I posted this earlier on another thread but I think it may help people on here as well. I hope it does. I know for a lot of you reading this, it's application season and you're getting letters of rejection, acceptance or for NAPS/Foundation School. If you're accepted...

Thank you Capt MJ for your kind words. I sincerely appreciate them. I suppose you are right that I am still in grief regarding my separation from USNA. I thought I would have gotten over this by now but it's hard to sometimes. It wasn't only my dream but my parents dream as well. Immediately...

I am moving on I promise. I'm not going to reapply to USNA. I am moving on in my life towards better things both in the military and out. Thanks for the support.

I will sir. And being a Riverine is no small accomplishment.

Thank you Spud and Capt MJ for your kind and supportive words. They make me feel hopeful and that my taking Lent seriously this year will lead me in the right direction and that I'm not alone in my mistakes or attempts to find redemption. I do like having free will and yes I will agree that...

I am looking to apply to OCS and I am working on the process and have been for quite a while. My discharge code was RE-3K and getting a waiver to apply to OCS took 18 months. Trust me I have put in the time to OCS. I'm just afraid I won't be selected for it. If that happens, what should I do? I...

Hello Everyone, It's been a while but I'm back and I'm here with a new question. Since I was separated back in 2013 from USNA, I have continued my education and graduated from college and am currently in graduate school. However, part of me still wants to go back to USNA and finish what I...

I am a former Midshipman who was separate after 2/C year due to an honor offense. Although I was not recommended to serve enlisted to recoup my time at USNA. I would still like to after I complete my degree in the coming months. Since being separated I have gone through many changes morally...

Sometimes though, even if you want to enlist and check the box, they don't recommend you for it due to the nature of your offense that you've been separated for. I know I have changed since I committed the offense, but some people don't believe that people can change. That's the hardest struggle...

Thanks for the information. I'll try to keep my head up in the coming months.
