I contracted today, and swore in and will be going into my MSIII year next year.
I was wondering, now that I am contracted with ROTC, will I be allowed to go to Airborne or Air Assault school? I am not a SMP cadet, just a contracted cadet.
It's possible, it all depends on how may slots your school gets for each and whether there is time to fit the school into the summer that will now include LDAC.
Talk to your Cadre, let them know your desire to attend a school, there are sometimes slots available over the winter break. There are also a few slots to schools that will come up during the school year. My son went to Winter Mountain Warfare School in Feb. he had to miss 2 weeks of school to attend, he worked with his professors to make it happen and had some catch up to do when he returned but all worked out fine, it will depend on how supportive your professors are.
The key is to continue to do well, be towards the top of your class and you'll have more opportunities, and let the cadre know that you are eager to go to a school.
