Just starting a thread for anyone who may be in the VMI 2024+3 class! DS will be doing NROTC and will be on the swim team. We are looking forward to meeting everyone in August!

Or is that just something I'll have to go without for the next 4 years?

Specifically VMI and Citadel, but I'm also curious about the other four too. Also, does your sleep schedule change over the weekends or summer training?

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...

I am planning on commissioning army from VMI and I was wondering how hard it is to branch in something like Finance corps. I am not too interested on branching combat arms or something like transportation, but it’d be interesting to know how competitive all of the possible career options are...

Hello, I am about to write a personal statement for VMI, but it doesn't mention how many words are limited. Anyone please let me know the word limit. Thank you

My DS just received a 4 yr Army ROTC scholarship. Does this increase his chances of getting accepted to VMI?

pretty weak resume imo 3.3 UW GPA, 3.6 Weighted 31 ACT I don't know if they just check GPA or rigor of individual courses, but my GPA is low due to electives like french and psychology. My grades in engineering, math and history are good, and science and english grades are ok. 4 ap 9 honors...

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening, I am currently scheduled to matriculate at VMI this August as a rat of the Rat Mass of 2017+3. I have selected Marine Option as my ROTC choice, and I was hoping that some current/former Marine Option Cadets could answer a few questions. Note that I am on an...
