Is it possible for an SMP cadet to transfer to another school? I will be in in the Indiana guard soon, and I plan on attending a local school for my freshman year, after which I plan to apply for the USMA. But if this doesn't work out, I'm interested to know, is it possible for me to transfer to...

I know that the Active Guard Reserve is an option for officers. From what I have seen, you cannot commission into the AGR from ROTC, as"you must be pending discharge from your component" (usar.army.mil). Is it hard to get into AGR as an officer before your discharge? Is it very competitive...

To start out, I am sorry if this has been asked already. The search function does not seem to be working from my end and opens to a blank page. I am a freshman at a community college and I have always been very interested in becoming an officer in the military. Secondly, I have always dreamed of...

Background: I go to a private military college and recently was offered two scholarship options (both would cover the next three years of undergrad study if I accept). The first option is a STEM rotc scholarship where I would commission active duty right after I graduate. The second is called a...

Hello everyone! I used to use this forum a lot while applying, and the one thing that it needed was actual students answering questions, instead of the person who heard from their friend who heard from another person. I currently am a sophomore at the Academy and can answer any questions about...
