I am 25, I have 3.5 years of college under my belt, although I have been out of college/football for 2 years now.
The plan was to get into the Navy job I want, and utilize the programs the Navy has setup to complete my schooling and become a CO (ex: Seaman to Admiral program).
I figured it was kind of pointless to go back and pay for school to get my B.A. (however close I may be to it) in the civilian sector, as I could have the Navy pay for it, and I plan to enlist anyway rather than attempt to go in as an O.
I was actually hoping I could play my senior year of football at my university while in the STA-21 program, then I could come back to my Navy job after I graduate as a commissioned officer. Of course this is all down the road and I am purely focused on just making it to the job I want first...but it's nice to have a plan of some sort even if it is very long term.
Any input on this?
