Who is not eligible for the R-CAP program?

The R-CAP (Recruiting Command Advancement Program) is designed to encourage and reward enlistment into the Navy by allowing certain groups of individuals to advance in rank based on specific eligibility criteria. Eligibility for this program typically excludes those who have previously benefited from it or any similar advancement programs, such as the REIP (Recruitment and Enlistment Incentive Program).

Therefore, anyone who has already been advanced under either the R-CAP or REIP program is not eligible to participate again. This rule helps ensure that the program can continue to support new recruits by preventing those who have already taken advantage of these opportunities from receiving additional benefits meant for individuals yet to join the service.

On the other hand, individuals who did not pass the ASVAB, those without a high school diploma, and even those with prior military service may still qualify under specific conditions set by the Navy, making option B the only one that clearly delineates a group not eligible for re-advancement under the R-CAP program.
