color blind college student - NUPOC

[caliguy]

Hi everyone, I'm going to the University of California, and have a 3.9/4.0 GPA in Physics. I am in my Junior year, and contacted a recruiter for NUPOC. However, I am colorblind, and my recruiter told me that I should apply for Naval Reactors Engineer, since I cannot be an unrestricted line officer. My question is, what are my chances of actually getting into the NR program?

Well, I failed 9/14 of the PIP tests at MEPS, and the Navy's limit was 10/14 fails. I also failed the Farnsworth Lantern Test completely. Other than that I was in good health.
