Thank you, and yes I was just accepted Early Decision to Duke, but I definitely had many backup routes to take just in case.

All of this has been really helpful, thanks so much! Ultimately I've decided to go ahead and try it; if its not for me then like you have mentioned, I have one year.

Received 4-year to Duke, Johns Hopkins, and Stanford; I can't believe I actually got it, considering the only "sport" I had was competitive dance - and even then I had to list it under other! Congrats to all!

I've been reading quite a few threads, and many give advice about not relying completely on the ROTC scholarship due to the kids that drop out after one year. However, I've only read general statements like "it wasn't for them", or "the program wasn't a fit". Is there any more specific reasons...

I'm in the same circumstance as OP, with a recently awarded ROTC scholarship. Is it impossible to achieve? The school I'm interested highlights the fact that their members of ROTC have ample time to be successful outside of the ROTC program. It has to have some rate of success, being that...

Are you talking about the PFT that you take for your scholarship application? I tried looking for that many times before mine and I couldn't find anything either.

I was recently visited by a PMS officer that presented me with the AROTC scholarship, and I had heard about the room and board or tuition but I'm a little confused. If you choose room and board the cap is 10,000. However, does the tuition have a cap or is it full? So if it is full, and my...

My mom just got a phone call that the local battalion is coming next Wednesday to give us "our results". They said they were gonna visit all the people they interviewed, but after reading this forum I have a good feeling. Fingers crossed.

Was that university one of his top choices? All of my top choices were out of state and over 24 hours away, so we went to the closest ROTC Batallion to have my interview, so I'm just wondering should I expect a call (if I were to get one) from one of my top choices or my interview location?Thanks!

Yeah I was aware that you get transferred to the next board, but I've seen other people saying that Clarkson told them they weren't getting an offer and I was wondering if that's what he said to them or was it something else? I didn't understand if he told me that I didn't get one or if he just...

So if I emailed him and all he said was "Like I said,I can't tell you if you have an offer." does that mean I don't have one or that there's a possibility I might get one? Sorry, I didn't learn about ROTC scholarships until this year and decided a week before the first board that I was going to...

How can you find out if you didn't get an offer?
