Hello NukeWorker,
I am a 27 year old student double majoring in Electrical Engineering and Applied Mathematics. Thus far, I have a strong GPA and academic achievements to trumpet. I want to serve my country, and recently, I came across the NUPOC program. I have lurked and read some old threads, but have not come across a thread that addresses my primary concern in regard to my eligibility for the program. As previously mentioned, I am 27, and I noticed that the Navy wishes their participants to be commissioned by their 29th year. However, I have also seen that there exists an age waiver. How often is this waiver awarded? Do older applicants such as myself face a tougher path to being accepted into the program?
If any members here could comment on what they know, I would be very appreciative.
