Crosstown Enrollment Agreement Weber State College and the University of Utah have entered a Crosstown Enrollment Agreement effective Autumn Quarter, 1982. Interested Weber State students may attend for credit Naval Science courses leading to active duty commission in the United States Navy or Marine Corps upon graduation. Four-Year Scholarship Program A four- year, government sponsored educational program to attract young men and women to a career as commissioned officers in the United States Navy or Marine Corps. Admission is obtained through national competition. The optimum time for application is during the fall school period in the senior year of high school. The program is open, however, to college student who are freshmen or sophomores so long as they are within the age limitations. The Navy provides uniforms and textbooks, pays tuition and fees, and provides a $100.00 per month retainer pay for a period not to exceed four years. Students requiring more than four years to earn their degree are granted a leave of absence, equivalent to the excess over four years. Students in approved engineering majors may receive up to five (5) years of benefits. Upon completion of the Naval Science curriculum and the awarding of a college degree, the graduate is commissioned in the Regular Navy or Marine Corps and serves on active duty for a period of not less than four years. Two-Year Scholarship Program Similar to the program above, but only two years in length, the benefits (tuition, books, fees and $100 per month) are the same, as is the four-year commitment upon graduation. Freshman/sophomore curriculum in Naval Science is taught in condensed form at Newport, Rhode Island, during the summer prior to the junior year. Application for the two-year scholarship must be made by April of the sophomore year. Selection is on a national scale. Applicants must have completed at least three quarters of calculus and at least one quarter of physics by the end of the sophomore year. You may apply at the Naval Science Department or at the Navy Recruiting Office.
