First and foremost I scored a 93 on the AFQT. Unfortunately my high school diploma is through a "Tier II" school. Isn't there anything they can do get me in considering my supposed good score? I did 3.5 years at a normal high school and only 1 semester at an alternative high school. It's not like I ****** off all four years or anything. There's gotta be some strings that can be pulled.

Secondly, since I'm 26 I apparently am too old to do the nuclear program. Why is the cut-off 25 years old? Would it help to study more and bump my score from 93 to 99? or am I s*** out of luck? Thanks guys.

Because NR said so. You can put in for an age waiver.

As far as the diploma thing, not sure what you can do. Hubs got in "without one", but he was home schooled so it was different.

Very doubtful that NR would approve an age waiver and education waiver. Have you ever been to college and gotten at least 15 credits? IF not then this may be your only option.
