Hi there, I saw a comment earlier about wearing JROTC uniform; I am in the US Naval Sea Cadet Corps, so would wearing my NSCC dress uniform be out of place?

@ServiceAcademyROTCInsiders 7 месяцев назад

You should wear your NSCC uniform - you earned it!

@samba5168 8 месяцев назад

Thank you for the advice! Is it ok to walk into the interview wearing my JROTC uniform? Or would that be a bit too much?

@ServiceAcademyROTCInsiders 8 месяцев назад

You absolutely should wear your JROTC uniform as it demonstrates propensity for military service!

@@samba5168Please note... You do NOT want to have a single imperfection with your uniform. Many board members have military experience and they will find it, causing more stress for you.

I live in California and you said they don’t do appointments do I just send out my application and wait for them to say yes or no when it’s time to apply to the college

@ServiceAcademyROTCInsiders 7 месяцев назад

Candidates applying out of California absolutely do need an appointment to attend a Service Academy. The application process begins the summer between junior and senior year, and you will need a nomination to compete for an appointment, likely a Congressional nomination.

I've heard a lot of people sort of roll their eyes when someone mentions any special forces group, even though that's what I truly want to do, so should I tell them about my plan B so they don't think I'm just some adrenaline chasing teen? my plan B is to study physics and do some sort of engineering science (still looking into this). I really do want to at least attempt the assessment and selection for a special forces group, it's something I've thought a lot about, the dangers, the commitment, all the hard to think about things too. I just don't want them to think I'm like those kids who play one game of call of duty or some other first person shooter and decide they want to go out and kill people cause that's really not it. So, essentially, should I be honest about what I really want to do, or should I tell them the "safer" option?

@ServiceAcademyROTCInsiders 3 месяца назад

Great question! Be very clear in your response as to why you are pursuing a special forces role. Back this up with steps you've taken to prepare for that role. Discuss additional career interests if special forces doesn't work out. (Your top back up) Acknowledging that selection is a long ways off and although that's your goal, you are an officer and leader first and will serve the needs of the service.

@@ServiceAcademyROTCInsiders Thanks so much! I'll be sure to write this down somewhere to keep in mind when writing my essays and thinking about what I'll say when it comes to the interviews. Your channel has helped me a lot so far in the application process. :D
