Navy Reserves

Hey everyone,

Starting school this summer (very excited) and thinking about joining the navy reserves now, or when I'm finished/finishing. I have done a lot of research, but haven't officially talked to a recruiter yet and was wondering if anyone out there had any advice??? Looking for the full gamut (horror stories, positives/negatives). The one thing I've heard is if your joining solely for the money it's probably not a good idea, but it's not about that. Both parents served and I'm intrigued. Thanks for any/all responses!

I am currently in the Navy but I am getting out in 2 months and also starting school this summer. The Navy reserve has some good options. There is the TMS option where if you agree to 6 years of reserve service once you are done with school, they will give you 2 grand a month during your schooling as well as a 50K loan repayment. so if your school is 30 months long, you will get 60K plus the 50K loan repayment for a total of 110K in return for 6 years of reserve service once you finish. With this option, you do not have to drill during school which is really nice. Or you could always join the reserves when you are done with school and sign up for a shorter duration like 3 years. Maybe the bonuses will be higher in a few years?? I almost opted for the TMS option, but I decided I wanted a clean break from the military and will reevaluate things after I am done with school. Hope this helps!
