<p>On many of the elite colleges like Harvard they have a spot where you are asked to describe career aspirations after graduation. Currently, I want serve as an officer in the armed forces for a few years after college to serve the country because I feel an obligation and then go into a civilian career after that. Is this wise to mention in an application considering the liberal views of many of the top colleges? Also many of the applications like the common app have a spot where it asks you a major and a possible career track, is it okay to put, history, military officer? and then explain the reasoning for this in the additional information section?</p>
