I have an update about my scholarship. The NROTC scholarship does pay for all the flight fees associated with the Aviation degree, which is great news. I have not found out how challenging it will be to change majors though. I cant imagine it would be too difficult considering I already have a...

How hard do you think it would be to switch the majors? What kind of process is it and when can I get the wheels turning on that? Also, even if the Navy doesn't pay for the fees JU gave me a substantial scholarship that would cover it all most likely.

Thanks! I just thought of this possible problem. Since I received a Tier 3 scholarship I can pretty much do whatever I want with it correct? So me switching to just the Aviation degree won't be a problem? They will pay all the tuition and fees associated with the classes right?

I believe I have decided on pursuing the Aviation Management and Operations degree. With it having all of the perks of flying in college along with the valuable business classes it is just so much of a good deal I can't pass up on it. A double major might not be all that difficult considering...

@Pima I haven't completely decided on Jacksonville yet. The visit down there will most likely determine where I end up. I know I will be spending the next four years at wherever I pick so I am doing my best to put every possible issue into consideration. I have another question about majors...

@kinnem I have not visited the school yet however I am trying to organize a private flight down to Jacksonville (Stepdads uncle has his PPL). I have visited App and their unit three times I love the mountains but I also love big cities and everything they have to offer. So I would be happy in...

@kinnem I believe I would be happy to do anything in the Navy all the way down to flying a desk. Whatever service selection I get I will be happy I know that for a fact. If by some reason I am not happy with what I get then I will still know that there is a life after the military where I can do...

Yes exactly! One reason I am highly considering Jacksonville is I can get a minor in Aviation Management and Operations (I would receive private pilots license I think) along with my major in Business Administration which I hope would give me a significant edge in getting that fixed wing spot in...

Thanks for the quick reply! I honestly would be happy with flying a fixed wing or helo. For that matter I would be happy doing almost anything as long as I'm commissioned although flying fixed wing is the best case scenario.

Hello forum! I remember two years ago I found out about this website. I was kind of hesitant to post anything but boy I am sure glad I did. I was told that my application would be kind of weak so I got discouraged but, I tried even harder then I have ever done before and it paid off. It just...

bradster1993- NROTC- UNC Chapel Hill- 4 yr- Tier 3 AROTC- Appalachian State- 4 yr- non tech

Yeah I thought if I was gonna be picked up for the scholarship on a tier 3 it would be later in the game on a space available basis but needless getting picked up this early in the game is a real accomplishment. Somebody in Pensacola must have liked me a lot to choose me this early with a tier...

Lee2015: I got my scholarship to the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill on a tier 3 major so im pretty stoked about that haha

CONGRATS!!! I just received notification that I have been awarded a NROTC scholarship to my #1 school!

Hello, I have read on previous threads that sometimes DODMERB reviewing a ROTC application usually leads to a scholarship offer. Which leads me to this, I was offered an Army scholarship from the first board but has not shown up on the DODMERB portal. I looked at my portal today and it shows...
