I agree with kinnem regarding UNCCH. Remember UNCCH is considered one of the top 5 Public Universities in the nation. It is commonly called a Public Ivy, mainly because their stats match up with Ivy league schools. However, for AFROTC the scholarship is tied to the cadet and their intended major, not to the college, unlike AROTC.
As far as AFROTC goes, I would say that if your SAT score is best sitting, you probably have a good chance for a Type 7 scholarship. If it is a superscored than you have to look back at your old SAT scores to figure out which test was your best sitting because that is what they will use.
I would also hope you look into how to become an attorney in the AF. It is not an easy path. Statistically you have a better chance to become a fighter pilot than a JAG.
It is about a 2% chance.
~ There are several paths with no guarantee.
~~~If you go ED (law school) right after graduation, you will most likely have to pay for it out of pocket, and than compete for a slot as a JAG.
~~~ If you want them to pick up the tab, you will have to serve ADAF for 2 yrs. You will than compete for a law school slot. Once you pass the bar you are automatically guaranteed a slot n JAG.
As others have said before you make your school selection, talk to your folks about how you will pay for college. AF scholarships only pay for tuition, whereas, AROTC will allow you to choose between tuition or R & B. Also in the fine print in the AF scholarship for Type 2 and 7 there are some key words.
~ Type 7 will only pay for the amount it would cost to attend In State. If you live in Ohio and you decide to go to UNC, but they will charge OOS. You will have to convert the 4 yr Type 7 to a Type 2 for 3 yrs. You will have to pay for your freshmen yr.
~ Type 2 will pay UP TO 18K for tuition. Some candidates assume that it is a flat 18K check because they never see the words UP TO. If the tuition is 15K, they will not place 3 K towards your R &B or cut you a check.
You also need to understand for AFROTC you must attend SFT after your sophomore yr. If not selected they can dis-enroll you from ROTC, and you will now be on the hook for your last 2 yrs of college.
You should also realize that most colleges on avg, jump about 10% for costs every yr. So again, if you go Type 2, and currently tuition is 15K, in all likelihood by the time you graduate in 5 yrs., the 18K will not be enough to cover the tuition bill. EX: Our DS (OOS) started in 08, his total bill was 28K, 4 yrs later, his sr. yr. the bill was 43K. Our DD entered IS in 10, her bill was under 15K, it is now over 22K.
Finally, if for some reason they decide not to commission you, they can come after you for the entire scholarship. It is their decision whether to let you serve out the debt as enlisted. There have been posters here that found out @ 6 weeks prior to graduation that the branch would not commission them. They were handed the bill, one was handed a bill for 143K, I believe the other was handed a bill for @90+. They were not offered the enlistment option.
Hope that helps. I didn't mean to get you concerned just making sure you were totally informed on the OMG what if situation.
