I was looking at the age requirements and I see conflicting information online, some places say 26, others say 29. I will reach out to a recruiter for more information, thank you so much! As I don't have a technical major, will this disqualify me from serving as a pilot, even if I have flights...
Thank you for posting this! My business background seems like I could be a great fit for this position. On a side note, does not having a STEM degree make it more difficult to commission through OCS? I understand the Navy would want an engineering degree for someone working on a nuclear sub, but...
I appreciate the feedback, and congrats on being accepted to West Point! I go to a state school, so realistically speaking the MBB firms aren't an option for me. I'll have 2 internships prior to graduation, although they aren't consulting related which is disappointing.
Thank you for your response, I am looking to apply for entry level analyst/associate roles to break into the industry. While I am definitely interested in OCS, my biggest concern is that they won't really consider me since I don't have a STEM degree (Finance and Econ major here).
Thank you for the response! I definitely agree, as a new college graduate I don't have nearly enough experience to add a whole lot of value to the client. As a result I'm shooting for entry level analyst/associate positions. I will also focus on developing the important skill sets you provided...
Thank you for the information! I have been networking with recruiters and university alum to prepare for the consulting recruiting cycle, which typically starts in September. I was looking into McKinsey but unfortunately I don't attend one of their target schools, which is why my eyes are more...
Good afternoon everyone,
Yesterday I received my second TWE to USNA, and while heartbreaking, I understand that admissions simply can't accept everyone. I have met some pretty incredible people on this forum, some of which received appointments to the academy of their choice, and I am confident...
TWE received at 9:42 AM EST, will be signing off from this forum as I am not reapplying for a third time. Can't believe I waited all this time just to be told no, but I want to wish everyone the best of luck.
I haven't seen someone who was non-LOA get appointed for weeks. I'm gonna be real, a TWE is definitely coming at this point. Pretty frustrating that they had us wait this long just to tell us that but it is what it is.
Thank you for the insight, can you please let me know how you learned of this information? Trust me I WANT to be wrong, so the more information the better :).
I don't understand the rationale behind extending the deadline, but I feel like there are one of two scenarios going on:
1. USNA has given out all the appointments, and any future spots that become available go to those on the waitlist. So unless they've been holding out an appointment for us...
