HOW TO JOIN

Interested in Joining?

American Pride Squadron has openings available for young people who want to learn about our military, are ambitious, self-disciplined, physically motivated, and have strong academic performance.  If this sounds like you, then keep reading.  Cadets must meet all eligibility requirements including application, parent/cadet interview, medical screening, and payment of required fees.  Parents of prospective cadets can begin the enrollment process by completing the Cadet Application.    A great reference for parents to read about cadet life, culture and US NAVAL SEA CADET history is the Parent's Handbook. Please download and read it.


Cadets Eligibility Requirements - Cadets Must:

  • Be a United States citizen or permanent legal resident.
  • Be 10 years of age and not yet reached their 14th birthday for NLCC cadets.
  • Be 13 years of age and not yet have reached their 18th birthday for NSCC cadets.    
  • Have a physical examination and submit NSCC Medical Examination and Medical History forms. 
  • Be enrolled in school/home schooled and have a satisfactory scholastic standing (at least a "C" GPA)
  • Have a good moral character and be free of felony/misdemeanor conviction. 
  • Unmarried and does not have any children. 
  • Is not part of criminal or street gang

  • Sign any hold harmless and release of liability waivers as required by the unit.

A medical examination similar to a high school sports physical is required for all cadet applicants to the Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) or Navy League Cadet Corps (NLCC). No one will be denied admission to the NSCC/NLCC due to a medical disability. Where a medical condition precludes full, unlimited participation, a Request for Accommodation (NSCADM 015) may be presented by the parent or guardian for review so the cadet may participate in NSCC activities to the maximum extent possible.

Adult applicants must be in good health commensurate with their age group and be free from any ailment or condition that would prevent them from satisfactorily performing their primary duty of supervising youth. NOTE: Adults not physically qualified to perform all duties may still participate with a waiver from NHQ considering the parameters of their expected contribution to the NSCC program
 


NOTE:  Advanced training is not mandatory for any cadet.  These training have additional costs. 
NLCC Training:  These are typically one week long and cost $120.  NLCC cadets are not required to attend any advanced trainings. 
NSCC Training:  These are typically two weeks long and cost $240.  NSCC cadets must attend advanced trainings to advance in rank.  Two trainings per year are required to maximize advancement.
