  • Hi CZcams! Spoiler alert *** I made it into the US Navy DEP Program. I went up March 4-5, 2021, signed a contract, and gave my Oath of Enlistment at MEPS. Here is the very, VERY long awaited video, and what my plans are next! As always, thanks for watching!

      That’s wussup Nukes are chill but in bootcamp they always got picked on by instructors you’ll see what I’m talking about when you get there 😂

    I kinda wish I had a video like this of myself when I went to MEPS. It would be cool to look back on how much has changed. Good luck in nuke training!

    I went to MEPS in Harrisburg, PA about 2 weeks ago. It was rated the best MEPS nationally this year. The staff and enlistees were extremely chill and I am fortunate to have had an experience like that. Some people had experienced a bad time at MEPs in general. I signed a contract for CTT and ship out in 14 days.

    Great vid. I was kinda blindsided by my job options. I picked ABE but now I'm having second thoughts on that rate. I ship to RTC in about 2 months and some change. Would I be able to change my rate?

    • @briannawood2124
      @briannawood2124  Pƙed 2 lety +2

      Technically yes, you are always able to change your rate until the day you leave for bootcamp. It might be a long process with some paperwork but if that’s what you want to do, go for it! Don’t be stuck in something you don’t really want to do, it’s a lot of years to commit to

    Congratulations!!! How long was your entire process!? I'm still waiting for a psychiatrist consult, but if I remember correctly, if all goes well with my consult, I will get to swear in that same day!!! So hope I get that appointment soon. I'm on week 4 of waiting starting 03/10/2021.

      @briannawood2124  Pƙed 3 lety +3

      Entire process was a little less than 2 years, took a little less than a month to hear for my consult. Thank you for the support, keep bugging your recruiter to keep your name out at MEPS to make sure they don’t forget out you. You’ll be there soon!

    When do you go to bootcamp after meps? Is it immediately? T.I.A.

    • @briannawood2124
      @briannawood2124  Pƙed 2 lety +1

      You are allowed to step out and make a phone call to your recruiter for help if you like, but it’s better to come prepared as best as possible because the jobs literally update by the minute. So you have time but no time, if that makes sense 😂

      When I went up in March, the soonest they had available was June and farther out, for the jobs I was initially qualified for. If they find a date sooner to leave, your recruiter can contact you directly and then you may be eligible for a bonus for leaving sooner!
