Has anyone heard if there is any type of graduation ceremony? Parade? Any reason for parents to travel to Fort Knox for the end of CIET?

It all depends on where you live. If you live in the North East or another big USMMA state you are probably out of luck but if you live in a state that does not have a ton of USMMA applicants than the Members of Congress may have a little more flexibility on the deadlines. If your son is a...

Assuming you are leaving voluntarily. If so, not a huge big deal. Tell your chain of command and they will put the system in motion. They will try to make you stay and have you call your parents to talk about it. Process can be done in about two days. You need to run around and return most...

What state are you from? No way to know how many candidates will be interviewed, some senators interview everyone that applies, others do a pre-screening. Where a suit and tie and dress shoes, button your collar. Questions: strengths, weaknesses, greatest accomplishment, why USMMA...

KP is closed, even the government workers that are still working are not being paid ... BUT welfare checks are still being issued. This sounds insane but is absolutely true, check any official news source. Great country we live in.

I think no to your tuition exchange question. But I am also from CT and applied for AROTC scholarships at Providence, Fordham and UCONN last year. I got 3 year at Providence but nothing to UCONN. (dont know why) Providence offered me a partial academic scholarship and some loans. Providence...

Can anyone let me know the advantages/disadvantages of contracting during the first semester of Freshman year. I passed the AFPT so they tell me that I can contract now but as a three year AD winner, I'm not required to contract until next year. Thanks, Bill

I am hoping someone has seen this issue before - I was awarded a 3 year Army AD scholarship which pays full tuition. The college I am attending gives a free room to ROTC students. So I only need to pay $3600 per year for the meal plan after freshman year. Here is the issue - The college...

Does anyone know if 3 year advance designee scholarship winners receive a stipend during freshman year? I was under the impression that the answer was no but the letter from my Prof. of MS says that any cadet who makes a commitment to the army will begin receiving the stipend. I am a little...

Can anyone provide any insight about upgrading a 3 year AD scholarship to a 3.5 year scholarship? Is this based just solely on grades? When do I need to start the process? Are the current budget cuts likely to affect this program? Thanks, Bill

$1.5 million? Do the taxpayers of this country really pay a football coach 4 times more than the President of the United States?

Can I go to a branch near my home before July 2nd and open an account? - Will they let me? Will it save me time or help me in any way during indoc? Thanks

This one is unbelieveable - The officer in charge of sexual abuse prevention is charged with sexual battery. Is the Air Force really this bad or does the press just jump on AF related stories...
