the citadel

Hello I am trying to go back to The Citadel. I was at The Citadel in 2021 and 2022 unfortunately I had trouble with the room inspection part and had to leave both times. I did Seacadets since I was 14 years old to when I was 18 and achieved the rank of Po2. I also went to Jrotc CLC at The...

I’ve just received a 3 year AD scholarship from the Army. The Citadel is my top choice, they recently announced winners of 3 or 4 year scholarships receive tuition/ room and board for the missing gaps. Would anyone have any advice on who to contact? or just wait a few days and see, as I just won...

Hey yall, I'm a current senior looking to major in psychology and commission into the Marines, and I have several questions on how to decide between the two. I've been browsing the forums, but most of the posts I've run into are for AROTC commissions which don't really help me that much. As...

Exactly as the title says. What makes the Citadel, compared to the other SMAs or ROTC programs, so appealing to Marine prospects? If you're a Marine officer who graduated from the Citadel, did you notice a large amount of your peers (who weren't in any Marine-specific classes) also going into...

Hello, this is my first post but I wanted to see if I could get some more info. I’ve been academically accepted to The Citadel and I’m on track to be medically accepted in the coming weeks. My goal is to become a Marine Officer and I’m just wondering how they give out their NROTC scholarships...

Hello Everyone, I was notified today that I was medically accepted to The Citadel and I plan to enroll in the fall. I wanted to know if there was any technical difference with The Citadels' medical acceptance standards compared to the DoDMERB in regards to what is waived and what is not. For...

I know the Citadel tattoo policy is basically that it can't be visible while wearing a duty uniform. I've been wanting to get one (3 1/2" x 3 1/2") on my upper arm somewhere between my triceps and my shoulder. I am also currently filling out an application for the Citadel, so I certainly don't...

One thing I vividly remember from my senior year of high school was seeking out any and all information about The Citadel that I could find... and what I found is that talking to current knobs was a good source of information. Therefore, I am opening this thread up for anyone with questions...

Hi everyone, I took my first attempt at a PFT this morning, and I'm curious as to how my scores stack up? My coach gave me the standard 2/2/2 (APFT), but we also took my score from the first minutes and mile. Scores are as follows for the 1/1/1: 1 Min Push-Ups: 25 / 1 Min Sit-Ups: 40 / 1 Mile...

I am a 16 year old female, Junior in high school, wishing to serve my country as an Army Officer. I only found out I wanted to take this path about 6 months ago. I don't have the money to afford college on my own, and I'm super unsure about USMA. I honestly do not think they will accept me with...
