A different kind of furry friend... he's not a dog but he sure does act like one.

Hey! I found an Instagram page, but I’m not on it so I don’t know how many people there are. I met a lot of my friends through Instagram, so I’d give it a shot! https://instagram.com/naps2022?utm_medium=copy_link

I'll PM you, so I don't flood this thread!

Yeah, you do. I worked my butt off and told my chain of command that I wanted to apply, but I had to meet all of their requirements for qualifications and working hours and whatnot.

Of course! Definitely not the case. My story is a bit funky. I graduated high school and went to college for a year, then enlisted in the Navy. So I ended up applying as an enlisted candidate.

Yeah! There are actually a lot of people here who don’t fit either category. NAPS was super helpful to me, personally, as it got me back on track in terms of academics.

No black magic! Honestly if you put your best foot forward and do your very best in your classes, go to extra instruction, work on your PRT, and make a decent effort to make your uniform/appearance presentable, you’ll be okay. I know it sounds like a lot, but putting a little bit of effort goes...

Keep all your NWUs for sure!!! You will wear those a lot. All the other uniforms I haven’t worn once since I’ve been here. If you bring extra white/brown shirts, boot socks, dress socks, and your dress shoes that will also be helpful. If you have an Eisenhower jacket, bring that, as well as your...

Thanks. I was going to tell her that if I couldn't find anything out myself. That chief was completely not helpful for me during my application process and I had to end up finding everything out on my own anyway so that's why I asked here first.

Hello! This isn't for me but it's for one of my prior enlisted friends. She messaged me today saying that she found the reference for the age waiver but could not find any guidance on how to complete it. She's 23. I wasn't able to find anything through my own searches, but I wasn't sure if...

Nope, but if it's anything like this year it should be mid-July. I think I reported in July 10. Hey! Congrats, first off. A few things of note. You're a prior, yes, but make sure to stay humble. There are a lot of things that you still don't know, so be sure to stay open and ready to learn...

I think some of the people on the waiting list have, but I'm not really sure! Everyone I know had their appointments by mid-May. Good luck, I hope you get it!

I hope it's harder! I expect nothing less of Plebe Summer. :)

I asked my teachers to write them and they did! Even though you've only been there a short while, they really get to know you through your grades and your work ethic, as well as from seeing you every day in classes. There's a good mix. A lot of athletes, but there are also a lot of people who...

Also: I kept checking all the time but they ultimately ended up sending me an email about being accepted to NAPS! Just stay on the lookout. Good luck!

I got one with my appointment! It took a while to come in, though.

I hope he gets it too! NAPS is a great place. Thank you so much!

I found out at the end of March 2020! But I know people who found out in February.

Hey! It wasn't too different, apart from the recommendation letters and the BGO interview. Instead of letters from teachers, I got them from members of my chain of command. I was in aviation maintenance so I had my maintenance officer (a commander) write me one, and the commandant of the air...
