Wow! Thank you for answering my questions everyone. Now can you pick any career you want and still got to Annapolis and become an officer in the Marine Corps? Or do you have to be a Navy/Marine Pilot and go to Annapolis.

Yes. It is called Marine Engineering. There are several colleges and institutes world over. Had you mentioned the name of your place I could have given more details.
Marine Engineers are the officers of a ship that operate and maintain the propulsion and other systems onboard the vessel. Marine Engineering staff also deal with the "Hotel" facilities onboard, notably the sewage, lighting, air conditioning and water systems. They deal with bulk fuel transfers, and require training in firefighting and first aid, as well as in dealing with the ship's boats and other nautical tasks- especially with cargo loading/discharging gear and safety systems, though the specific cargo discharge function remains the responsibility of deck officers and deck workers.
Sometimes, they are involved in the design and construction of these complicated systems. New design is mostly included within the naval architecture or ship design. The field is closely related to mechanical engineering, although the modern engineer requires knowledge (and hands on experience) with electrical, electronic, pneumatic, hydraulic, chemistry, control engineering, naval architecture, process engineering, gas turbines and even nuclear technology on certain military vessels.-

The Marine Corps is part of the Navy, so they also attend the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD.

The US Naval Academy at Annapolis is considered the academy for both Navy and Marines.

Everyone pretty much answered your question as the Marines are part of the US Navy. Therefore, Marines often attend the Naval War College in Newport, RI. It is considered one of the best schools for tactics and warfare.

I believe the Marines are a subclass of the Navy, so they would go to Anapolis like other Navy cadets.
