    Budget Cuts

    Well Bruno, I guess you don't know, but someone who has read the proposal might have some insight into the scope of the cuts. I am not losing sleep over this issue, but the question is legitimate in that these cuts will affect the future of the military and its future leaders.

    Leaving West Point for AFROTC

    Just my opinion, but I would stay at West Point. You are near the end of the hardest year and only have 3 years until commissioning. I think a limited number of Army Cadets get commissioned into the Air Force. Maybe you could get one of these slots. If not, you might be able to fly in the Army...

    Delay before training

    A friend's son was commissioned NROTC Marine Option, but now has several months with no pay until his training starts. Is that becoming the norm for all commissioned NROTC officers Navy and Marine? I know the Academy guys get stashed somewhere or do recruiting, but at least they are getting...

    Chance of getting Naval Aviation slot.

    Does anyone know what the chance of getting a Navy Pilot slot is if an NROTC Mid'n. meets academic and pilot physical requirements? Do most who request Aviation get selected or is there a limited number? In years past there was no quota for USNA midshipmen. Any insight on measuring the chance of...

    Update on disenrollment from NROTC

    I think I would do everything I could do to enlist. I would get in good shape, and beg the Navy to allow me to enlist. It may not be what he dreamed of doing, but it would be an honorable job, and would allow him to earn money and benefits. He might even get a commission if he performs well as...

    Update on disenrollment from NROTC

    What happens if he cannot pay? Can he declare bankruptcy? Most kids straight out of college don't make 50k per year, and are in no position to pay back 4000 per month. Why is the repayment not over a longer term like most student loans? I definitely believe there was ,at best, a communication...

    USCGA vs NROTC marine option

    If you are for sure going to reapply to USNA, I would go to the Marine option or I would go to a University as a civilian and concentrate on getting great grades in college level calculus and chemistry. Both the Marine option and USCGA are extremely difficult to get. The Marine option would give...

    NROTC vs USNA selection

    I have seen posts that candidates were accepted to USNA but not NROTC and vise versa. Does the Navy look for different things in ROTC Midshipmen than they do in USNA Mishipman? What do you think would cause one to be accepted to one program, but not the other? Is NROTC or USNA more competitive?
