 The fiscal year 14 Seaman to Admiral 21 or State 21 commissioning program selectees have been announced. A new NAV admin announced the 50 sailors selected. State 21 sends enlisted sailors to college to earn a degree while on active duty to become a commissioned officer. The program allows you to keep your pay grade while in school and still be eligible for promotion. State 21 also allows you to receive up to $10,000 a year for tuition, books and fees. To apply, you must be recommended by your commanding officer and meet program requirements. If you want to apply or see what's available, log on to state21.navy.mil. Applications for fiscal year 15 are due by July 1 of next year. From the Defense Media Activity, I'm Petty Officer Xander Gamble.
