Hey first comment huge fan on step 2 of the process and during my physical I found out I was red green color deficient now im just waiting for them to reach back to me

[@northwestsailor526]

Interesting, let me know what they get back to you with!

[@shawndelsmith2572]

If I have bills like $450 a month how much do I have to save if going into the program or will I be making money

[@shawndelsmith2572]

If I have my Mmc, Twic,and passport can I just apply for a ship entry level or do I have to pay for my credentials and training

[@northwestsailor526]

You also need your basic STCW courses which is a payed class. Then yeah, apply to companies are join a union.

[@dwill6935]

Do you have to cut your hair in the program as part of the process?

[@northwestsailor526]

Only if you come not clean cut. If your hair is already a military style cut they don’t care.

[@dwill6935]

@@northwestsailor526 gotcha does that count for a person with dreads or someone in the process of growing them?

[@northwestsailor526]

@@dwill6935 Clean cut is military style cut. So no dreads.

[@armaniricks2183]

do they teach you how to swim @ SIU ?

[@captbshields]

They will teach you to float with immersion suits... But swimming, not really.

[@northwestsailor526]

No, they will teach you to float if you don’t know how to naturally they teach you to use your t-shirt as a floatation object.
