    Truth of non scholarship rotc?

    Thank you for the info! Now for the SAT of 1150, what is this combined with? I do plan on taking the SAT once again to get a better score. Is it Math and Reading? Also, why is the GPA so low? (In my opinion I would think at least a 2.75 or even 3.0 would be appropriate)

    Truth of non scholarship rotc?

    That is very helpful! Well my concern now is the part where "The SAT-R is the highest of the SAT, ACT or AFOQT depending on which the cadet took. AFROTC is currently reviewing these factors and the associated weight. " I'm going to transfer to one of the universities. (Most likely as a...

    Truth of non scholarship rotc?

    Just got off the phone and this time it was a different person. He seemed to be very vague and wasn't into answering my questions. He said that 20 of the students applied for the SFT but only 10 got it. (Will call a different AFROTC representative and ask him about the 250) For the GPA, he...

    Truth of non scholarship rotc?

    You all are amazing! Pima, I'll be in contact with the AFROTC within the hour and I'll respond on the topic with my results from your suggested questions. As for SFT, all candidates are automatically "enrolled" to attend SFT? Thanks again! I'll reply fairly shortly with the responses.

    Truth of non scholarship rotc?

    What is the likely chance of commissioning without a scholarship? If I wouldn't receive a scholarship throught the program, I would still be perfectly content. What I don't understand "generally" is the Professional Officer Course. You don't need to be contracted to continue through the junior...

    Truth of non scholarship rotc?

    So I was just recently on the phone with an AFROTC representative at a college and they told me that about 160 students are in the program. About 40% are on scholarship. Here is what gets me. He said that you don't need to be on a scholarship to finish AFROTC and to be commissioned as an...

    Advanced standing chances

    I have the calculus requirements but not the calculus-based physics as my current degree didn't need them. I regret not taking it already and that I didn't know that those physics courses are needed for other degrees. That is my fault. (That was explained to the recruiter as well. I didn't...

    Advanced standing chances

    I thank you for the advice! I contacted an officer recruiter in Texas because he was the only one that would answer. I literally called Florida, GA, NC, SC, and Ohio. The officer was literally the nicest and straight forward recruiter I've talked too. He took down all my information and...

    Advanced standing chances

    I am putting myself on the 4 year track to graduate from one of the universities regardless of transfer credits. I may dual degree or pickup a minor to replace those credits. I'm just not that "optimisitic" of my chances of doing the NROTC from "freshman" year vs AROTC chances. One of the...

    Advanced standing chances

    That was a little depressing finding out the chemical corps wasn't what I anticipated. As of right now, I will have to keep asking the NROTC officer about the Advanced Standing every so often and consider the AROTC route as a possibility. From your experience right now, what are your chances...

    Advanced standing chances

    The AROTC cramming is what the officer was concerned with and encouraged myself to do the full 4 years. I honestly don't have anything against the option and would fully consider it if I wouldn't be considered for the NROTC. I know I "shouldn't" go the armed forces with that route if I wanted...
