Great Story - Thank you for sharing it with all of us. I am glad that you were able to realize your dreams and you give me the certainty that I can realize mine!

Thanks for all of the help. The process and training is a lot easier when it's demystified with the help of a couple of friendly posters!

Thompson, Thank you for giving me such valuable insight. I am starting a 2 month long program I found online to help prepare for the APFT. Obviously I will have to tweak it, and will be running a lot more than that! I am NOT a natural runner by any means so I really do appreciate the...

Thank you both! I've been reading on these forums for quite some time and both of you have provided invaluable information. Thank you for being so dedicated to helping others. :thumb:

This made me chuckle. As the previous posters said, it would be wise to accept it so as to have your Plan B in place. Congrats! Be thankful you have options. You earned the scholarship, enjoy that and hold on to it until AFROTC comes through.

Thanks Pima! I will definitely try and plan my schedule accordingly.

I am very pleased to share that I have been accepted to my #1 School - University of Maryland. I have been given Spring Admission, but I will be able to participate in a program there called "Freshman Connection" which allows me to take my Gen. Ed. classes. (Basically, at the end of the...

Thanks for the advice, have a great new year!

Welcome! The scholarship is NOT good for any school of his choice - if he is given a scholarship it will most likely be to ONE or two schools on his list. He has to get into the school itself separately. If he wants to transfer his scholarship to a different school, there is a process (I...

Yes, the PT is timed. It's max pushups in a minute and also max situps in a minute.

Anyone going to the movies over the Holiday? My family usually goes Christmas Day to see a movie together. Really looking forward to Les Miserables this year - I'm a long time fan of the stage show. Anyone else looking forward to seeing anything?

Hey everyone! I've been lurking for a while and sucking up all the info on these boards! I've applied for the national AROTC scholarship, and hope to join the program regardless even if I don't get a scholarship. I plan on studying Criminal Justice/ Criminology and if all goes well...

Merry Christmas Everyone! Stick close to your friends and family, have fun, and stay safe! Enjoy the Holidays!

Well - you're heck of a lot more qualified than I am! All of your resume looks pretty solid to me man. I assume you still would want to do ROTC if you don't get a national scholarship?

Glad to hear things went well at your interviews! I interviewed for ARTOC back in October. I was surprised when doing research before the interview how strictly it followed the sheet. More of it is set scores than what the LTC personally thinks. It was really cool to have the opportunity...

Congrats to all! Stay safe!

Thank you so much for the help guys. I appreciate you taking the time to give such detailed and helpful replies. I will definitely be contacting GMU's ROO.

Hello everyone, Yesterday I got accepted to one of my top choice schools - George Mason University! I am thrilled and relieved that I don't have to worry about that anymore. As I have not yet been awarded a scholarship (I applied for an AROTC scholarship), I was wondering if it would...
