In bootcamp, initial issue is around 700. In a-school the only things you may HAVE to buy is 3 ring binders, pens, paper things like that, maybe $50 total assuming you don't find some old free hand me downs from graduating students.
What you may WANT to buy in A School is a totally different story. Computers, TVs, Xboxes, Phones, Food, WiFi for your room, extra uniform things (shirt stays, chlorframs, new ribbons when yours get dirty or extra sets so you don't have to move them from uniform to uniform anymore), Alcoholic beverages (if over 21), movies, music, shopping, civilian clothes, the list goes on and on. But those aren't required. If you wanted you could eat at the galley every day and do nothing but what you did in boot camp all day and save your whole check if you wanted, but somehow I don't think you'll do that. There's no added expenses on the navy side but I'm sure you'll find a way to spend that check...
