Hi Everyone! It's been a while since I've posted on here, currently a rising 3/C (Sophomore) Midshipman at University of Washington NROTC. This summer I did CORTRAMID and now I'm trying to figure out what I want to request for next years summer cruise, and was hoping to maybe reach out to some...

Thanks for the response Kinnem! That was my original plan, I feel no shame in retaking some math courses, I've got to dust the cobwebs off the ole cranium! Also, thanks for the rec on Khan Academy, I hadn't heard of it before! I just wanted to be sure that the Navy isn't going to say "Pre Calc...

Hey everyone! So later in September I'll be reporting for Battalion Orientation at the University of Washington in Seattle, on a Navy Option NROTC scholarship. I'm so excited! I'm taking a couple of days trip out to Seattle to complete my orientation, as well as take the math placement test...

Hi Guys! I was awarded the 4 year NROTC Navy Option Scholarship to attend University of Washington, Seattle. I'm currently on a gap year in New Zealand, and will be here until August when I return to the United States. Is there a way to go through the MERB overseas? Perhaps at the American...

I've won the Navy Option NROTC to University of Washington- thanks for all your help everyone, and we'll see you in the fleet!

So I was accepted into the VTCC and was looking at dates- their New Cadet Week starts the Saturday that I've committed to playing in the finals at the World Championships, so I've emailed the VTCC, explained the situation and to see if it's possible since I'd need to leave Glasgow on Sunday and...

Monday for navy option, idk about MO.

I'm told there is going to be a board on Monday the 9th, so fingers crossed everyone! They may have just started having board later, my recruiter says that starting now there will be boards every two weeks, so we hopefully should start seeing a more steady stream of decision, be them good or bad.

Any advice about it weakining be overall package, since my written portion was to match my original school choices?

Sorry for the confusion here, I'm currently on my gap year after not receiving it last year. If awarded the scholarship this year, then I'll use it starting this fall. Thanks for tip UAMAROTCfamily!

Hey all, last week, I decided I wanted to change my first choice school from the University of Colorado Boulder, to the University of Washington in Seattle. Having decided this, I went ahead and sent the email to pensacola requesting the change, and it was reflected on Monday on my portal...

Hi Guys, just wanted to ask a very general opinion of all of the NROTC Scholarship applicants this year, as well as the posters that would have been following the ROTC threads last year. I didn't receive the scholarship last year, and have reapplied for it this year, but I've noticed that the...

Thanks for that! Are midshipman automatically housed with other midshipman for there freshmen year? Or is there any different housing for midshipman of any kind? Or just normal?

Thanks so much for the great advice! Physics is my intended major. Just a bit confused, are you double majoring in physics and calculus? Or do those classes make up the bulk of your workload at the moment?

Hi Pickle, thanks for the offer! I am still waiting to here scholarship selection status as well as selection status for University of Washington. My question is, how do you like living in Seattle? Do you find you drown in a sea of people? Is the city a cool place to go to school? Any cool spots...

Happy New Year Everyone! Thanks to everyone who helped me on my last question, but now I have another. So after not being awarded a scholarship last year, I decided I'd take a gap year and reapply for it again for this year (which I have done, still waiting to here on decision). For this gap...

Thanks for the responses everyone! As of now, I'm leaning more towards declaring physics for my major. There was a good point made about needing to be able to handle challenges, especially when my career goal is a Nuke. However, my issue with declaring Engineering as a major is not because...

Hey All! I'm just curious as to what other people on here think- My scholarship application has my intended major as Physics (tier 2) but my mother is advising that I major in Engineering (tier 1) instead, because there are more tier 1 scholarships awarded, and Engineering will leave me...

Hi All, I am reapplying for the NROTC scholarship for this year. I am also moving to New Zealand for the next year on Wednesday. I still have to write my essay before I can submit my application, and I need to do my officers interview before I go. I scheduled on for Sunday but I still need...

Checked my status tonight and was informed that I was not selected...a huge disappointment for sure, but I am excited for my plan B option....to travel New Zealand for a year! Wishing the best to the applicants who survived this round of news.
