I had my interview with the BDCP [BACCALAUREATE DEGREE COMPLETION PROGRAM] guy today, and he said that once I pass my midterms this coming year, I should be recieving a letter of acceptance from the commission, provided I maintain my current grades, which I don't think will be a problem. I'm really happy about this.

What the BDCP basicaly is - the US Navy pays students about $1000 a month to complete college, and in return, the student attends OCS upon graduation. It's highly competitive, and allows me to focus on my studies without worrying about a job.

The only major issue is an easily workable one. I gotta start working out more, to fit minimum physical fitness requirements of the Navy. :lol:

Congratulations! This sounds great. A friend of mine completed Officer Candidate School ... last summer or last fall, I think. He's going back to Iraq for his second tour of duty sometime soon. (he said about two weeks the last time I talked to him, which was about a week and a half ago, so I guess in a few days...)
