In the Navy How does college work?

All military contracts are for 8 years.  this can be broken up into chunks of Active Duty, reserves and IRR.\n\nCurrently the shortest AD contract is 15 months, that starts after all training is completed(boot camp, a and C schools).  this is followed by 24 months in the Reserves( and no getting out of it.. at this time, NCS Sailors may not extend on AD).  Aftre that, they may continue in the Reserves or go to Individual Ready reserve( no drilling, no commitmment, but may still be recalled to AD)\n\nAs for education:  AD sailors have the opportuntiy to sign up for the GI Bill.. for a contribution of $1200( payable over 12 months) you will be able to access up to $30,000(and sometimes more) for college, that can be used within ten years of separating from AD.  There is also Tuition assistance that you can utilize while on AD.. 16 credits per year.  You may also get credit for any schools you attend,  You may CLEP(test) out of some classes and gain credit that way.  There are PACE courses on NKO that can also be tarnsferred over for college credit.  \n\nHow easily you can do any of these things, hwoever, will depend on your duties.  You military obligation will always come first, and there will be deployments .\n\nIf you want to be a chef, look into the CS rating.  Culinary Specialist.  Yes, you are a glorified short order cook, BUT you will learn the basics as well as possibly have the opportunity to go to Culinary School on the Navy's dime.

You get credits just for graduating boot camp.  many MCI's also give you college credits.  As for the MOS itself, I've never heard of that.  Look into apprenticeship programs at base education and college courses you can take (most commands will give you time off during working hours for the classes) the are free, all you pay for is text books.  There are A LOT of educational opportunities in the Marine Corps, you just need to keep abreast of them via the base education center and take advantage of them, which too few Marines do.

There is no scholarship.  If you're admitted, everything from uniforms to schooling is free.  You also get paid a salary.  You repay them through service to the country after you are commissioned.  If you do NOT serve, are chaptered out, etc. , you are required to pay back the cost of your schooling.

The Navy, Army, and Marines all have programs like this.  But you must sign up for 4 years of service one you've finished school.  They pay for school and also give you amonthly stipend of around 1000.  It's a great deal if you don't mind serving when you're done.  You'd have to check on their age requirements.

It depends on the university. Your best bet would be to contact the admissions office of the university and see if they have a policy regarding military training. You may be able to defer your acceptance (push it back a semester or a  year) so that you'll be able to fulfill your military obligation and then start college.

If you sign up for ROTC, and take their classes, and participate in their events, then the answer is a resounding YES.\n\nBy the end of your 2nd year of college (I think), you have to decide if you are going to go into the military.  If yes, then you sign a contract, and they will continue to pay.  If no, then they will no longer pay for your college.\n\nCheck with the ROTC instructors at your college.  They will be able to give you more definite answers.  I've been out of that arena for 6 years.

Visit a Navy recruiter.  Ask him all the questions you like.\n\nThen don't believe a word he says - he is just there to get you to enlist, and he is not responsible for anything you think he promised.  You will not necessarily get the school he promised, or to be stationed at the place he promised, or to stay with your friends as he promised.

I would say Navy, also check out the Air Force. You have to get your High School Diploma or equivalent (GED) to join the armed forces. So either catch up you credits or you can get your GED.

I'm 28, spent 10 years in the Navy Special Forces. Depending on what you've heard about the Navy, I don't know so I'll give it tto you from the top. \n\nThe Navy, unlike other branches, actually takes care of you. You know healthcare wise, the other branches take care of you yes, but they use their own people, the Navy actually sends you out to specialists in town, and no matter the cost they take it. \n\nThe Navy also has the Buddy Program, where you and three other females would spend a lot of time together, and most likely be stationed together as longa syou guys can. Depending on your jobs. This is a great opportunity for you to get to know people from the very beginning and become close close friends. \n\nThe Navy also has the "smartest" people. We train all of our enlistment / officers to the point of "perfection". In boot camp you spend 40% of the time in the classroom. Unlike other branches where you focus on physical attributes. The Navy isn't like that. They train you to the end, so everyone has the same standards. \n\nThe Navy may not have a lot of jobs and careers as the US Army does, however, the Jobs you find in the navy are 98% of the time are co-ed jobs. The only jobs I believe you can't get in the Navy as a female is of course, Special Forces, and I can't remember the other 2. \n\nThe Navy has just spent 78 million dollars to rebuild all their base housing in just about every single base around the world. So its all been renovated, the gyms and places are a lot better. \n\nAs far as my experience in the military, I've been raised a Navy brat all my life. And the Navy has really given me an opportuntiy I wasn't given when I was growing up. I mean I have guys that are like my brothers, and we've served together 10 - 11 years. We have BBQ's together, go out to Hooters together once in a while, and you know just have fun. Its all a big family. Thats what ANY branch can give you. A close knit family no matter wher eyou go. \n\n\nIF you have any questions feel free to IM me, email me.

Here is your answer:  If you have never been in the military before, you will be processed under the Non-Prior Service Basic program.  This is a USNR program that allows you to select from a group of jobs (rates) that you qualify for.  Each job will have different ship dates.  The job you select may have two or three different dates available.  The term of DEP (Delayed Entry Program) is not to exceed 365 days.  However, unless you are a High School senior you will not be looking a whole year out.  Once you ship to RTC (Navy Boot Camp), you will complete 9 weeks of Naval Training and the ship to the Navy school that you choose.  Once you complete school you will check in to the nearest Naval Reserve Center (Naval Operational Center).  From that point,  its one weekend a month and two weeks out of the year on active.  Feel free to email me if you have any more questions.  Good Luck.

I was a female in the navy for 4 yrs. I learn a lot and had great fun doing it. The freinds you make in there last forever and it is a different kinda friends too. More special I would say. I got out in 96 and still talk to a few of my closer friends. As far as jobs no it didnt help me in a way, the job I had was an operational specialist. radar, navagation, and that kinda stuff near the bridge of the ship ( top ) If I had it to do over again I would make sure that the job I got was one that would trasfer to a civilian job. Which mine didnt. But having been in the Navy looks great on resumes.I will never regret my choice to join. What an andverture. traveling was the best. Singapore, Guam, Hawii,Hong Kong, Germany, Persian Gulf, Dubai let alone the states. I would strongly recommend if to a female for sure, specially if you have no outlook for college or anything like that. Cause I didnt even want to think of college.. So I hope you choose what is good for you and have fun doing whatever it is that the future stores. Best of luck to you

This is a very difficult question to answer simply because there are a lot of factors that can play in to various opportunities. With out have a crystal ball to see the future; here is the best possible answers I can give you. \nOnce she qualifies for enlistment by taken an ASVAB and physical, she will sit down with a NAVY CLASSIFIER.  Now, there are approximately sixty different jobs that the Navy has to offer in five of six different programs.  These jobs are offered based off of what she qualifies for and what is available.  Depending on the job that she selects really sets the stage into answering your question.\nFirst, all Navy schools and even Navy work experience is college accredited.  These credits go on regular transcripts issued by the Navy Education Center and are transferable to Universities and Colleges. Ideally, this will not line you up for a degree but does help knock out basic classes and prerequisites. \n\nNow, the Navy offers 100% college Tuition Assistance (TA) to active duty sailors.  The maximum amount is 16 credit hours a year (this is waiver able for more).  Using this is funding is highly encouraged by all Naval Commands but has to be approved by the chain of command.  Its encouraged because if we aren’t using it, we may lose it.  The sailor has to request permission to use it via her chain of command which vailidates her success and time to do courses.  So, her immediate supervisor all the way to the Command Officer have to approve the plan on balancing work with school. If she doesn’t pass then she is responsible for paying back the TA (potentional hardship on the sailor and Commanding Officer).  So depending on her job, it’s hard to say.  Alot of sailors are attending online degree programs.  This is common at both ship and shore commands.\n\nProgram for Afloat College Education (PACE)  If stationed aboard a ship, sailors have the opportunity to attend classes with college professors aboard the ship.  This is a classroom setting that is taught by college professors that live and teach on the ship.  The are sent by big schools like University of Texas.  The classes offered are you freshman and sophomore levels.  \n\nFree CLEP testing.  Test out of required classes is also very common.\n\nShe needs to understand that some jobs are more challenging and offer more excitement and experience in different fields.  Now a days, looking at the classified ads, employers want a college degree with “a minimum” years of experience.  The Navy offers that experience.  If it’s a short cut and college is all she cares about.  Check these two enlistment options out:\n\nFull Time Support (FTS):  These jobs are normally administration, medical, and aviation, some engineering.  This enlistment is for the Training and Administration of Reservist (TAR).  Basically, there is about a 90% chance she would go to Boot Camp, go to Navy “A” School, then pick a Naval Reserve Center some where in the U.S.  The job is full time staff at a Reserve Center and offers very relaxed working hours with a lot of opportunity to go to college.  \n\nCollege First Program (CFP).  Very under used by recruiters and has strict requirements. The CFP allows qualified DEP members the opportunity to go to college for up to one year prior to boot camp.  The Navy will pay the accepted member for this program the base subsistence of $250 per month plus a supplement up to $225 per month depending on cost of living in the schools zip code.  The student has to be going to school full time and maintain 2.5 or higher.\n\nIn my opinion, these are the best two options to ensure time and opportunity towards a degree.  About 72% of first enlistment sailors are working on a college degree.  So the opportunity is there.  Lastly, if she decides to get out at the end of her term and for what ever reason could not achieve her goal, the G.I. Bill will not only cover cost of living but pay tuition to finish it up. \n\nBest of luck, hope I helped.  Feel

Navy is short for Naval Forces, or military forces that are in water such as boats and submarines.\n\nArmy is short for armed forces, which is basic on-land military.\n\nThe terms army and navy can apply to any country.

Go to the Navy Recruiting Website.  Do some research.  Go talk to a Navy recruiter.  Make sure you signature hand is in a cast.  Just go and chat.\n\nDo you have a degree?  You need one.  One approach and the most favorable is to go to the Navy Academy at Annapolis.  If that is not possible try Navy ROTC.

You get paid while you're serving and you do get a sign on bonus and financial ops to go to college. Actually you need to get your GED prior to enlisting and you can go to any community college and find out if they have a GED class you can take and find out from them when the next class begins and plan for your enlistment after you complete the GED. The military doesnt take anyone without a high school diploma since the rules and regulations have changed over the last 30 something years. Since the war is going they're using reservists so if you want to stay home and be in the military go in as a regular in the military there are far more benefits you can have and there's more ops to travel to other places too since reservists are the ones getting called right now. Check out your options right now, but get your GED first before you enlist. It's easier that way so it's less stress on you later on in case they changed the rules to save yourself from taking two steps back instead of going forward.
