Thanks Jim. For some reason I thought that her recruiter was actually giving her more of a choice.

Thanks Jim, I will let her know so that she makes it a priority before completing boot camp. If she wanted to change her rate now, before going to boot camp, would it affect her shipping date?

I would really encourage her to get designated before going to fleet.  Getting A-school in the fleet is difficult and needs of Navy have to be considered and the command.  Most non designated seaman go to deck div or supply.  If she wants a technical field and has the asvab score for it, she needs to push to be designated. As for recruiters giving her more choice, their job is to enlist sailors giving away the least needed to get quality recruits

Now I have found why not very many people have commented on this post, the name that I used was incorrect because my daughter at the time of her initial processing was not paying attention to what was being told to her and now that she is done with Boot camp I have finally seen the paper work for her rate, it should read Surface\Seaman PACT program.
