I do not think NUPOC would work for me because I will not be a Nuclear Engineering or Physics major. Would they take Economics or Computer Science or Computer Engineering major though?
After the 3 year active duty commitment, am I required to remain in the reserves? If so, for how long? And, can the reserves pull me from a civilian job and put me in AD at any moment?

1) Will I be able to do summer trainings and summer cruises before I am granted "advanced standing," which happens junior year?

Some more information... University of Pennsylvania runs the program. I get 3 credit hours for the course. I also get a Penn transcript. However, it is only done in the summer, so can I list it in my Candidate Personal Data Record "Schools Attended" page.
For the "Schools Attended" page in the Candidate Personal Data Record, can you list a university that you completed a rigorous summer program at and received credit at?

Dear CaliNavyMom:
I have already contacted my admissions counselor at an academy and she told me that if there is no one in office, I would not be able to receive a nomination. I will contact the MOC nomination committee to find out more information.

Dear gokings814:
Thank you for your response. I apologize for posting this thread to all three SA forums. I was in a panic and wanted feedback from as many people as possible. I will surely aggressively pursue Senatorial nominations and make sure they are notified of the situation. However, I...
