when you join the navy after that can you get a master degree?

Answer 1

There are many education options in the military. If you already have a Bachelors degree, then you can use the GI Bill for your masters. However, there are many positions in the military where they need people who have the masters level education. I went on active duty with my bachelors degree. After I had been on active duty for a couple of tours, they selected me to return, while on active duty, to get my masters degree. I had two options: fully funded - where they paid my tuition and fees and also paid my salary and benefits and gave me the time for school, or my choice partially funded - where I paid my own tuition and fees, but was given my salary and benefits and allowed the time to go to school full time. In the cases of funded on duty graduate education you go to the school of your choice and get the masters degree, you then return to a military base after graduation and have a service obligation for the time spent in school.

I chose partially funded, because I had set up my graduate program where I could finish my masters in 18 months full time, and there was a separate federal program that paid my tuition anyway. I ended up owing less time.

Eventually, I retired anyway, though early due to injuries I sustained on active duty.

It is also possible to return for a doctoral degree in a funded program, but those are very selective cases.

Answer 2

wow your dad was a recruiter and told you not to go enlisted what a crock to me, he must have had a bad time in the service. Now me I was 20years and retired as E7 and love it and all the great officers I knew and worked with and for were enlisted first and worked there way up the chain, worked the system and because a better leader than those OCS grads or west point grads, it's an old saying LT's got 1 hit wonder because they would always push out the LT's in from of combat and they would get picked off first, you you are enlisted and then because officer the military members will respect you more. Now although I have had some A Hole officers but for the most part you know what it would be like as enlisted you been there and done that, trust me ask anyone who they would rather serve under someone just from westpoint direct commissioned or someone who was enlisted first? Whatever service you decide to join do your homework, talk to each recruiter, take the ASVAB and the physical and if you say you are as good as you are and they need you they will put everything in a contract like they did with my son.. Let the military pay for your college, get LIFE experience and if the recruiter is too damm lazy to put in a officer packet then you go to another recruiter or go above thier heads, I am surprised your "recruiter" dad isn't helping you..

Answer 3

I joined the Army. I did it to get my bachelors degree while I was active duty and then use my GI Bill to pay for my masters.
They will pay for our college while you are active duty. So take as many classes as you can. There are so many online schools designed for people in the military. Take advantage of them!!
