Hey all. First time making a post but I'm in a difficult situation and would like some feedback. I have applied to USAFA and the Naval Academy, and additionally have nominations to both from my district representative. I have been offered the AFROTC commander scholarship to a decent school in my home state, but have not heard news back from USAFA. Ultimately, USAFA is my goal, and USNA I applied to but honestly am not interested in going if I have the option.
My predicament is that my Commander scholarship goes off the table on the 15th of March, when the national AFROTC scholarship decision is released. If I do not clear their board, I can no longer be offered the commander-in-chief scholarship for the school. If I do clear it, I can take that scholarship to any of the schools I applied to (with AFROTC detachments of course).
Not sure if it would help but my stats are: 4.5 weighted GPA, 4.0 unweighted. 1320 w/ 640 math 680 reading SAT score. 30 ACT. Got accepted into Aim High Flight Academy this summer, and have been to both a state and national leadership program (1 of 62 students nationwide for the national one, rigorous application process, and was chosen as one of 2 representatives for my state out of a group of 27 applicants.). I have played soccer for 3 years and was captain this year. National Honor Society president this year, treasurer last year, and have held numerous leadership positions in my scout troop. For what it's worth my AFROTC interview went great (I think at least, considering they offered me the commander scholarship). The fitness score was solid as well. Put my desired majors as aeronautical engineering and mathematics.
Concerned about my SAT, but I at least hit the benchmark. Anyone knowledgeable on the AFROTC scholarship, or USAFA admissions would be a significant help. Thank you.
