Hello all!
I interviewed for an Air Force ROTC scholarship yesterday and they offered me a full tuition scholarship on the spot, but only if I attend their school (it is the University of Cincinnati). I have until Monday to decide. Ideally, I would never choose to attend University of Cincinnati, but my parents want me to graduate college with very little debt.
I need help deciding if I should accept this offer or wait and see how my application does in the board. My stats are as followed:

Please Please help me. I'm in a very difficult decision and I need as much guidance and help as I can get. Please let me know what my chances are for any type of scholarship or if I should take this offer. Please help.
