I'm pretty sure the drug paraphernalia ticket DQs you from any job with a security clearance, but don't quote me on it.

I believe that the SN PACT rating requires a 'Secret' clearance which is my current rating. My line scores are well above what is required, and have normal color perception and normal hearing.

I will ask my recruiter if given the chance at my DEP meeting tomorrow. I know that I am DQ'ed from the MA rating given my moral waiver but I haven't found any information online as to if my ticket would DQ me from GM.

I will ask my recruiter as soon as I can and relay it back here to help anyone who may be in my shoes as well.

By offering those rates, he is telling you that you will not qualify for a clearance. The only undesignated community that requires at least a secret are firemen. On a carrier that's because all engineers own equipment in reactor spaces.

Alright thank you for your insight!
Another question, once I get in and pass RTC and do my time as Undes SN, will I be able to apply for a secret clearance? Shooting for striking to GM after I do my time if possible, which I believe requires a 'Secret' security clearance.

I would like to apologize for asking these very specific questions in multiple different threads, these answers I just can't find while perusing the net.

In some cases you will, in some you wont. You will only be processed for a clearance of any level if there is an absolutely need for you to have it.

If you aren't working with classified material (most GM's don't) then you probably won't be processed for one as a Sailor moving from PACT to GM. There really wouldn't be any need for the Navy to spend the money on it (they're expensive).

If you got into GM and transferred to a duty station where you needed a SECRET level clearance, then you would be processed at that time for one.

PACT sailors are not required to hold a clearance, and in most cases don't.

It would be on a case-by-case basis really.
