USMMA graduates and SMA SIP graduates use form MA-935 to request a waiver of their service obligation requirement, form MA-936 to request deferring their service obligation, or form MA-937 to request one final review of the MARAD decision made on these requests by the Maritime Administrator. The information collected on these forms is then reviewed by the responsible government agencies (MARAD, DOD, Coast Guard and NOAA) as part of the service obligation compliance function. Failure to collect this information would make it difficult for MARAD to determine compliance with the obligation and the enabling statute. Every student and graduate of the USMMA and each SMA SIP subsidized student and graduate of the State maritime academies incurs a mandatory service obligation as a participant in the Federal maritime academy program. This obligation consists of: (1) completing the academies course of instruction; (2) maintaining a license as an officer in the merchant marine of the United States for at least six years following graduation from a maritime academy; (3) serving as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Naval Reserve, the U.S. Coast Guard Reserve or any other reserve unit of an armed force of the United States for at least six years following graduation from a maritime academy; and (4) serving as a merchant marine officer on U.S.-flag vessels, as an employee in a U.S. maritime-related industry ashore or as a commissioned officer on active duty in an armed force of the United States or NOAA Corps. The employment service obligation is three years for SIP subsidized state maritime academy graduates and five years for U.S. Merchant Marine Academy graduates. The graduates of the USMMA and the SMA graduates provide an annual report to the USMMA or MARAD between January and March that provides service obligation compliance data for the previous year. Students and graduates of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy and State maritime academies are required to complete these forms when requesting waivers and/or deferments of their service obligation contract.
