Each school has allocations for 4 yr scholarships and some have 3 yr. AD. What is unique with the 3 AD is the fact that the student is in essence proving themselves the first year before the scholarship is awarded. If they do well and are qualified, they are awarded the scholarship.
There are such things as 2 and 3 year (non-AD) scholarships for applicants entering the academic sophomore/junior year. However, currently, these scholarships are not being funded until further notice. We are being more fiscally responsible and balancing our budget as resources have become more scarce. There are still other 2 and 3 yr. scholarship options (GRFD, dedicated National Guard/ dedicated Reserves) available.
As an Army, we have had much success meeting elistment/commisioning requirements and expect to see this success continue. Both the quantity and quality of our applicants has gone up so the process is quite competitive. Congratulations to your daughter! That is no small accomplishment.
At Marian University (small, private in Indianapolis), the school offers 5 housing grants for scholarship recipients. As long as they stay in student housing, the grant is good regardless of academic standing. It is a individual University incentive, not a Cadet Command incentive. Many Universities have them and the ROTC program ROO/PMS/HRA will be able to tell you if they are offered. Hope that helps!
