I'm a 29 y/o female with a Master's degree in architecture. I have been practicing in the field for 4+ years, and have a very impressive resume (not to toot my own horn Smile ). I will have my architectural license shortly. I am also a regular runner, and am in excellent physical condition.

I'm very interested in furthering my career in architecture in either the Navy or Army as an officer. Given that I am now over the stated age limit for civilian entry into OCS for the Navy (based on the info I've been able to find), does anyone know if your specific field of expertise or experience makes a difference in getting an age waiver? How about physical fitness?

What factors affect the likelihood of getting an age waiver?

Thanks for your help!

That is for the CEC (where your degree directly applies). if you scroll up and down there, you will find other designators and requirements.

The age is waiverable for CEC....it wouldnt be listed if they didn't want to give it to people Wink!!! An Officer recruiter should be able to give you the likelyhood of the waiver, though I know the one I've been talking to loves potential CEC applicants.
