I thought I saw somewhere that there are special Army scholarships for undergrads majoring in desired languages (Arabic, Chinese, Russian, etc) and was wondering if anyone had info on this? Is applying for these scholarships a separate process than the AROTC schoalrship, or would these majors...

Does anyone have experience with contact lenses and ROTC? Are they allowed during Orientation Week, and during drills? Or does it vary from program to program?

I'm a high school junior applying for a 4-year Army ROTC scholarship, and was wondering if this seemed like a feasible plan: I want to attend my UG under the ROTC scholarship, and probably will major in Biology. I was planning to then apply to Dental School and use the HSPS scholarship to pay...

So I'm applying to UNG June 2nd, right after the end of my junior year. Wondering what my chances were for the Corps of Cadets! I'll also list UNG as my #1 on the AROTC scholarship. I have a 3.85 GPA for my career, I'm in the top 20% of my class. I scored a 29 composite on the ACT, I was...

Composite scores for the April 13th ACT are out! I got a 29, which is way better than I thought I would do! I'm also finishing this year with a 3.8 GPA, so hopefully that'll suffice for my future goals. Now all I have to do is apply for UNG Corps of Cadets admission as soon as this year is...

I'm contemplating becoming an Army doctor and was wondering if anyone has experience with military docs? Is being a physician in the militray similar to the real world in terms of being in a hospital and diagnosing patients? I understand you can be in combat trauma centers, but with the war...

I had some Guard recruiters talking to me today, they said I can go to BCT between my junior and senior (HS) years, then they will pay 100% tuition, and I can be a part of an ROTC program while in college and commission active duty when I graduate? This seems too good to be true. Why would...

So I was recently in the Emergency Room (unrelated) and they did an EKG on me. It showed that I had a slight sinus arrhythmia, and I haven't had any symptoms of it ever in my life. I play sports, run, all that stuff. She said that it was very common in kids and teenagers, and that they don't...

Could I use the 4 year AROTC schoalrship to pay for my undergrad major (Biology), commission and serve my four years, then to to Medical School? Are there any Army options that give scholarships to applicants that pay for undergrad degree as well as medical school? And in return, you are an...

This is my last chance thread, I swear haha! Updated a little. I have a 3.85 GPA for my career, I'm in the top 20% of my class. I took the ACT Saturday and think I got a 26-29. I was recently elected Secretary of my school's National Honor Society, and also served as a Supervisor and...

So from what I understand, every member of the Corps of Cadets at an SMC has the opportunity to be active duty commissioned after they graduate? So that means at SMCs you do not need a scholarship to take ROTC your junior and senior years? And do not need to be under scholarship to commission?

If I'm a junior, would it be beneficial to start the application now, as soon as I get my ACT scores back? And if I do start the process now, would it be possible to have it in by the time I start my AROTC application in September? I plan on applying fr the Marine Option. Does major affect...

I'm about to apply for the ROTC scholarship and having second thoughts about applying now. I'm still in my junior year and, to my knowledge, the Army ROTC scholarship considers all 4 (9-12) years instead of just 9-11? Will applying for it now out me at a disadvantage to people who apply in...

Personally, I feel allowing women to be in Infantry units would jeopardize the safety of their fellow soldiers. The evidence is there, women are less physically strong than males. Infantry requires walking miles with large amounts of weight. The only way they could pass physical standards is...

I'll start by saying that I'm not trying to start a Citadel vs. VMI argument at all. I'm an interested student, and I was wanting some feedback from those of who who have experience with these schools. I was absolutely committed to VMI until I got my info packet from The Citadel. I've now...

I'm about to start the application process, and I know for sure I am applying for the Army ROTC scholarship. I was also considering applying for the AFROTC scholarship as well. Several of the opportunities for officer careers in the Air Force are appealing, like Air Liaison Officer and...

I'm interested in Combat Arms, but open to suggestions. What would you guys say the best Army Officer MOS is? I have an uncle who was an MI human intel officer, he seemed to have enjoyed it. Any current or former Army officers share your experiences!

I'm taking the ACT Saturday, and applying for the AROTC scholarship as soon as I get my scores back. What's a good goal to shoot for on the test? I've been taking several practice tests and right now I'm averaging around a 29. Is this good enough for a scholarship? How much does the ACT...

I'm a junior in high school right now, I am starting the application process immediately after this year. I will be applying to North Gerogia, The Citadel, Virginia Tech, and The Citadel as a Cadet. I know it's competitive, but do I have a chance of acceptance? I have a 3.85 GPA for my...

So basically I've decided I will be listing VMI as #1 and North Georgia as #2 on my scholarship application. Of course, I will attend VMI if I receive the scholarship, it is my dream school. However, if I do not receive the schoalrship, the out of state, $42,000 per year price tag is kind of...
