Nukeworker community:
I recently underwent a long, arduous process of filling out applications and preparing for the physical in order to apply for the NUPOC program. Although I have yet to finish two semesters of physics and math, the recruiter insisted that I apply. Months later, she decided that I was academically unfit to apply as a navy nuke (we kept in contact mostly over e-mail), even though I am an engineering sciences major. While I now understand that I must complete at least two semesters of physics and math, I am unsure how an engineering sciences major (structural) is not technical enough. The recruiter stated that I would be eligible for the BDCP program next year (as a junior). I really would love to be a navy nuke, despite my dwindling resources (university is not military-affiliated). Any suggestions on what I should do? Is it worth reapplying at a later time? Thanks in advance.
P.S. I went to the #1 engineering high school in the country in which I maintained a solid A average in all technical courses. Now that I'm at a liberal arts institution, I am granted to pick and choose the order in which I take engineering courses. Can I use my high school transcript as a factor?
