I was wondering if anyone has heard any word as far as commissioning options for AFROTC, class of 2016? As many are probably aware of, last semester, those commissioning in May 2015 are/were given the option to commission into the Reserve/ Guard. I believe this is an effort to reduce the number...

I received a letter from VMI today notifying all those attending for the Class of 2016 will not necessarily be able to pick which branch they do for ROTC due to downsizing. The letter basically stated that those who either have a scholarship or paln to contract with the armed forces will have a...

Yesterday, I received my acceptance letter from VMI. Thus, I have to make the decision between the Citadel and and VMI. For the past couple of months have thought that the Citadel was where I was going to go. However, I think that was mostly due to the Citadel accepting me first. Nonetheless, I...

I apologize if this has already been posted, but I was curious to know what Citadel Alumni and others think about this: http://news.yahoo.com/citadel-says-pursued-abuse-report-020447273.html Seems similar to the Penn State scandal.

I am curious to know what the reality of receiving a commission in the Air Force if one is a non-scholarship cadet. My concern is that the AF is only giving commission slots to those who hold scholarships because of all the cutbacks. Is this true?

Okay, so I did the pre-knob program at the Citadel and loved it. I am strongly considering going there, but I have one concern. This may sound a bit weird, but when we were eating in the mess halls with the knobs I tried eating about the same amount as the knobs around me. Anyway, I noticed...

I was curious to know if in Army ROTC, can one contract non-scholarship their sophomore year, but then try to pick up a scholarship later on (possibly a two year scholarship)? Or does contracting non-scholarship not allow you to try and pick up a scholarship in the future? Hope this makes...

If im not mistaken I believe i get the task of creating the "Citadel acceptance" thread for the class of '16 I just received my Citadel acceptance letter. I hope to see more posts from those accepted. Good luck and congratulations to all. Also, thank God that we are able to live in a...

I am sure this question has been asked before somewhere on this site. Unfortunately, I am unable to find it. Anyway, I am wanting to know whether those on scholarship with any ROTC branch are favored as far as receiving a commission compared to those that are just contracted and not...

Is anyone familiar with the Citadel honors program as far as being accepted as an incoming freshman? Are there statistics based on GPA/ test scores. Also does anybody know the statistics for receiving a scholarship from the school? (Note: I am not a resident of SC) Thanks, JLT

I know this admission question is asked a lot, but i am curious to know if I am an individual who seems like they will be accepted to VMI. Here is a brief resume: GPA: 3.5 ACT:24 Extracurricular: Varsity Basketball: (9-10) Varsity Cross-Country: (11) Varsity Tennis: (9-11) National Forensics...
