Hi all,
I am currently a high school senior. I am very interested in serving in the Navy Reserves. If there was an option through NROTC to join the reserves, it would be perfect for me, but I don't want to go active duty. I know that NROTC is a path to active duty officers, but are exceptions ever made where people are allowed to join the reserves?
I have also considered enlisting in the Naval Reserves, but I am concerned about missing my first year of college for training, and the possibility of deployment in the middle of a school year.
I know that I can also wait until graduating college, then join the reserves, but I really want to get started.
Do I have any other options that I am overlooking, and can you please advise?
Thanks,
Christina
