    Training with Shin Splints

    I'm a rising freshmen who's interested in army ROTC (as some of you may know from previous posts). Anyways, I've recently been inflicted wit shin splints. Ugh. So my backstory is this: 18, female, didn't do any school athletics in high school (horseback riding only) and I didn't really begin...

    OPAT Question

    Hi everyone. So with the new OPAT, does this mean that if you don't score well enough (whatever the standard is), you cannot branch combat whatsoever? Thanks!

    Commissioning Question

    This might be a not-so-good question, but I'm confused so I'll ask anyways. So everyone talks about hoping to get a commission at the end of ROTC, so does that mean it is not guaranteed? Or do they mean that they hope to get a commission for active duty, but the people who don't get active duty...

    First Day of ROTC

However my school does not have a ton of specific information on the website, so I was wondering if you could tell me what the first couple days are like.

    Increasing Push Up Score

    Hey everyone. I'm entering college in the fall, and although I didn't apply for a scholarship this year I am definitely doing Army ROTC when I get to campus. However, because I didn't really decide that this is what I wanted to do until winter this year, I did not start working on my fitness as...

    Tips for getting a scholarship in college

    I didn't apply for the army ROTC scholarships before the deadline, so would really love to get one next year when I start college. However, I want to make it clear that it is my dream to be a soldier so regardless if I get one or not, I am still doing ROTC. Anyways, here are my stats: incoming...
