    Rejection From Assigned Unit

    Is there an admissions appeal process at GT? Some universities will allow for an appeal provided new information is submitted. If you were awarded the national 4-year NROTC scholarship after you submitted the application to GT, that might qualify as new (and substantial IMHO) information...

    2.9 as a Tier 2 major as a 1st semester college programmer with a C in Calc - is DS competitive for the 3 year?

    Could be mistaken but I think OP was asking about DS' chances (with a 2.9 first semester GPA) in his re-application for the National scholarship. I tend to stay away from the 'chance me' posts, but if the write-up from the PNS (I think OP is indicating the the PNS is conducting his O/I) is...

    NROTC College Program - Physics and Calculus

    2021 Adv Standing Board: 21 applicants / 21 selected. Of the 21 applicants, 1 was calculus complete, 1 was physics complete, 1 was complete with both (these are not exclusive categories. Quite likely it's one applicant who fits in 3 bins (calc/phys/both)). 2020 Adv Standing Board: 68...

    Not an absolute requirement for Navy Option CP to take Calc/Physics to gain advanced standing.

    NROTC application form, what selection?

    Not binding. The community you indicate interest in has absolutely no bearing on scholarship selection. It's a writing/communication exercise. One more way for the applicant to demonstrate program motivation (research of the available communities) and in a short amount of space, convey the why...

    2/C: Does Study Abroad hurt my chances for Pilot? NROTC

    @nrotcmid23 has it right. Take the study abroad opportunity. Out of sight, out of mind meant something before modern day communications. Take the initiative and generate a plan for your time abroad that speaks to things that are important to your NROTC career - PT, professional military...

    Does ROTC require enlisting also?

    Navy Reserve ROTC

    Perhaps your recruiter was thinking of the Strategic Sealift Midshipmen Program (SSMP). https://www.netc.navy.mil/Commands/Naval-Service-Training-Command/NROTC/SSMP/ There are financial incentives within this program but they are not NROTC scholarships...

    NROTC Repayment of Tuition and Fees with Drop On Request before obligation period

    @252swede So this just became clear cut. Son's DOR dated prior to convening order - disenrollment should be processed as a DOR (6-16.5). Perhaps the staff officers are new and not quite well versed on the ROD. When the PRB report heads to the PNS, hopefully this situation corrects itself...

    NROTC Repayment of Tuition and Fees with Drop On Request before obligation period

    Your son is on solid footing (with two emails to the NROTC staff) but hire the lawyer. It is clear that he submitted his drop on request prior to 01 Sep (which is contract obligation date). I'm not sure what drove the PRB (the reason should be stated in the convening order). A PRB is not...

    How important is NROTC major

    I don't know the percentage. Educated guess based on the boards I've sat on is that it is close the 15% +/-. IMHO, the announcement on the website (~85% scholarships go to T1/T2) has a HEAVY influence on the Tier selection of the applicants. So much so that the NSTC desired result becomes what...
