EDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTS

Generally speaking, you must meet the high school graduate or high school equivalency requirements to enlist in the Navy.

If  you haven’t met the high school graduate requirements to enlist in the Navy you may qualify under the high school equivalency requirements.

FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS

The Navy takes personal financial responsibility very seriously. In certain cases when you enlist, you have to prove that you can meet your current financial obligations. If you are enlisting at a pay grade less than your monthly financial obligations, contact a recruiter about your eligibility.

DEPENDENT RESTRICTIONS

The Navy will normally not allow you to enlist if you have more than two dependents under the age of 18. Who is considered your dependent? If you have questions, contact a recruiter.
CITIZENSHIP REQUIREMENTS

As a U.S. citizen you may enlist in the Navy (assuming you meet the other enlistment standards). But what if you are a non-citizen? You can still enlist as long as you meet the following requirements: 

  1. Entered the United States on a permanent residence visa or have an Alien Registration Green Card,
  2. Established a bona fide residence
  3. Established a home of record in the United States

For enlistment purposes, citizens of the United States include citizens of the following: Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands.
