Characteristics
of Active Component Non-Prior Service Accessions
Of
the 9,034 individuals who applied for service in the USCG, a total of
4,197 actually accessed. This number represents a 47-percent accession-to-applicant
ratio, down slightly from 48 percent in FY 1999. The distribution of race/ethnicity
by gender for FY 2000 Coast Guard and overall DoD Active Component NPS
accessions is shown in Table 7.1. Eighty-seven percent of USCG NPS accessions
were male (Appendix Table E-6), of
whom 85 percent were White, 4 percent Black, 7 percent Hispanic, and 4
percent "Other." Of the female USCG accessions, 80 percent were
White, 8 percent Black, 7 percent Hispanic, and 5 percent "Other."
Overall, USCG accessions were more likely to be White and male than accessions
in DoD. The proportion of USCG accessions who were Black is approximately
one fifth of the percentage for the overall DoD.
