Enlisted-to-officer programs allow Sailors in the United States Navy to become an officer if they meet the criteria specified for a particular officers program. Besides recommendations for the specific program you should be aware of what applies to all programs.
Competition is tough, but these programs allow top-notch Sailors to becoming officers in the United States Navy. If you are interested in one of these programs, get familiar with the instructions that govern these programs. You can then gather the required information you will need when you talk to your Career Counselor, chain of command or officer who has knowledge of these programs.
Program authority is spelled out in Title 10 U.S. Code sections 531, 532, 533 and 1251 for active duty, and Title 10 U.S. Code sections 12201 and 12209 for reserves. The first document you may want to become familiar with is the OPNAVINST 1420.1B manual which will help you through the process. It is also highly recommended that you check your records and then fix and update any errors or outdated entries. Remember that you will be competing against your peers for these programs.
