Anyone know how many sideload scholarships are given out to FAMU's NROTC unit? Also, what are the chances of receiving Advanced Standing at this unit?

Thanks Kinnem! Your input is always valued! UNF is not my number one college choice, but JU's unit awarded side load scholarships to 7 out of the 9 that put in packages. I know if I want one, this unit will help me the most. After all, my ultimate goal is to become an officer, I shouldn't be so...

My status said: "We are sorry, you were not selected for a scholarship. You will receive a letter explaining other options available to you." I am very sad about this, but luckily I have plan B underway. I will be going to the University of North Florida, and participating at Jacksonville...

Congrats in the scholarship!! And thanks for the info, I am now sure I will commit to this unit, I spoke with the LT there and he told me my best bet is to go there because I'd have a better chance at a 3 yr scholarship.

I got accepted into this unit for the college program, does anyone have any valuable info on it?

Yeah I get that, but this particular school (FAMU) goes by semesters for their terms. (Mine does also). Man I have the worst luck ever with this, it's like it's not meant to be:/

Okay, so I was told I should look into applying for the MSI scholarship at FAMU, and as I'm reading the requirements I come across this paragraph, here's what it says: "Demonstrate high academic performance and a strong background in math and science from high school or in a college...

You have no idea how happy I am to hear this. In my mind, I'm thinking that becoming a college programmer is as competitive as the national scholarship. I guess I shouldn't be too worried about it. And yes you are right, the 2 units I'm applying to are FAMU (FSU) and JU (UNF), both have a formal...

Does anyone know anything about this unit? Im going to attend FSU, but I've applied to FAMU's college program. One thing I do know, their staff is not very professional. I call and call, no one answers. They do not reply to any emails, and when they DO finally answer their phone, they rush...

Mine hasn't changed at all. I applied April 30th 2012, it's been almost an entire year. Honestly, I've already started to contact units about joining their college program because I'm seriously starting to lose hope :(

All depends on how many college credits u have. If ur under 30, go ahead and redo the application the same as the first time.

Honestly, I'm surprised u haven't heard back yet! U have great stats, better than mine actually. I also didn't get pick for the first 2 boards, but I'm still hopeful. It's basically a waiting game...which sucks for us. But look into NUPOC, it's honestly a better deal if u ask me.

Lol took me a while to catch up on those too. But yeah guys, first AND second board are over. They actually called me and told me (long story) lol

NROTC first board is over. I got a call about the MRIS scholarship, and I was told I did not make the first board.

Pima, I'm ABSOLUTELY AND POSITIVELY sure this is what I want to do. Ive wanted to do this since high school, but my mother made some poor choices, and i was forced to work at an early age - leaving no time for ROTC. When i realized i could still do it as a freshman in college i took the...

Haha I think I worded things weird. Okay here it is: I graduated class of 2011. Started college August 2011. In Feb of 2012 decided to go or the scholarship since at the time I had 17 credits. After April 1st, my spring semester credits would come to be 33. And of course I would no loner be...

Above it says that UPON application I cannot have 30 or more college credits. When I applied I had 17. As it stands today, I have 33, and by Spring I'll have 67. I mean what did they expect me to do, put my life on hold? I kept going to school and I kept studying, I'm not gonna wait around...

I followed the rules, I'm perfectly eligible. I think it's up to each specific unit:/ http://www.navy.com/jobs/nrotc.html THIS WAS STRAIGHT FROM THE NAVY WEBSITE. About this Scholarship: The Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) scholarship provides money for school and a career...

I believe I'm in a unique situation right now, and my recruiters aren't helping me AT ALL. In March of 2012, I applied for the 2013 NROTC scholarship. I applied so early because they told me that after March it would be too late because my Spring semester college credits would count against me...

Hopefully it was! I haven't heard anything from anyone who's applied either. Checked again today, nothing's changed.
