Thanks for the insight!

I'm sure I could ask my ROO or Battalion commander, but I'll start here. If you are granted a three year scholarship, do you contract and complete all the forms like a four year scholarship winner? Secondly, is there a ceremony, or does the contracting ceremony come later for a battalion...

Thanks! That would be great. I'll talk to my ROO as well. I think we meet next week.

Would this be something an incoming cadet could do pre-freshman year? Starting international studies, and this sounds like an enriching opportunity.

Could one assume that navigation would be covered more intensely during military science classes and field exercises during battalion training?

Woohoo Signed last night. Three year to Brockport. Had a great visit last year before chasing West Point. Was 3qed and secondary nomination. Already over 300 for AFPT as I get ready. Here I come.

Still waiting for letter. NY. Congratulations to all. Hurry up and wait.:shake:

Any communication is a good note. I just became 3Q'ed this week after months of work starting last September. Of course, the journey for all of us started years ago. Congratulations and Merry Christmas!

Thanks for posted link. Accepted to Norwich and awaiting West Point notification. Dad bugging me to pay fee to reserve my spot. :)

There are some reasonable ideas here that speak to me. I won't stack up against a top notch student that focuses only on school, but I can and do understand how to clearly communicate and get a job done. I would probably fit into this category of candidates. I'm not a 4.0 but I do well in...

What does the National ROTC scholarship application ask? Will it be similar to applying to an academy? Everyone says to apply early, but now I've heard that some candidates have applied too early as they leave gaps, ie. low scores, lack of community involvement, and leadership moments. Can...

ROTC help Good luck. What do I do for rotc; when do I start? Visited one fine, local AROTC and have address to national scholarship for rotc. Do I wait for strong score on ACT, and does my FF advise me?

My dad and I read The Long Gray Line, and may answer some of your questions. Despite being set during Vietnam era, it shows the preparation for officers before they deploy. This storyline may simplify things , but it basically echoes the insight I have from career officers.

Informative text by Couch. Fits stories and experiences of SF major I know that ran with my dad.

I am hopefully attending Boys State; have lined up the interview this month. Should I include this on an application? I worry about not being trusted if my plans don't work. I was planning on sending in my current resume to my representatives, but I would include a handwritten note explaining...

I'm a junior applying to USMA. I've started to contact a few ROTC schools near me- RIT, Brockport and Norwich. What do I need to do to aggressively pursue a ROTC opportunity? I've already finished my VP nomination bid and expect the packet from one Congressman in two weeks. I should...

You will want to have cycles in your training, so you want to have two phases of training heading in. Definitely, have a easy week before going in.

Quick question that I have not asked my FF because it was midterm and SAT week for me. My PSAT scores were subpar, and I completed SAT saturday. I had these scores sent to WP and they should arrive around the middle of February. Will solid scores get me into SLS? I really want to go, and...

Thank you! I searched twice, and knew I had seen it somewhere.
