March 8th, 2011 AROTC Board

Hello All,

I noticed that my daughters status shows parts of the application that has been received and required before the board will review her file. Not until today did it show this information and it says medical has not been received. We did not receive anything from Dodmerb prior to the deadline for these items to be turned in. Does this mean she did not get looked at by the last board? Thanks for any input.

It just means she has not received her physical yet which has nothing to do with being reviewed. Normally physicals follow receiving an offer.
 
We just noticed the same status as Ibotsford, the only difference is he just received a letter from DODMERB yesterday stating he's qualified. Were we supposed to send something in to AROTC?

I don't think so but I'm not positive because we haven't gotten that far yet. I know others have posted that they have already been DodMERB qualified and their status reads the same as yours.
 
Good night all. Taking all my happy sleepy drugs and going to turn off the brain for a little down/rest time. Hope everyone has a peaceful night and wakes ready to wait yet another(and perhaps many, many more) days for the results. It was awesome talking around tonight with the new status page and DodMERB request to help distract us for a little while. The board/thread will really light it up when our results are released.

Take care.:smile:

Same here. I've been checking it everyday and this is something new. I've never seen this before. Hmmm, wonder what it means.:confused:
 
My DS in same boat. Saw the status change regarding the medical info not recieved. He was SA dobmerb'er qualified back in December for West Point. Then by request Dodmerb changed his status for AROTC. So you asking if he was not reviewed because of this in round one and two was my first question. Too bad CC doesn't have a SAF rep to answer these questions.

After all the posts that the status page had changed I decided to take a look.

My son received the scholarship back in mid November, his status page has looked the same since then. I just looked at it now and they have added a new line to it. I would imagine this is what everyone will see if they are awarded a scholarship.

New added Status Message for awarded scholarships:

"You have been offered an Army ROTC Scholarship. We must receive your acceptance/declination by the date in your letter or the offer will be withdrawn. Your name will be sent to DODMERB the day your winner letter is printed. There will be about 72 workweek hours prior to being able to see your name in the DODMERB system."

I must say they should have proof read this before they added it.....I hope everyone receives their "winner letter" soon.

DS received a scholarship in the January board. His page now says the same thing.

My son received his scholarship last year and is finishing his freshman year as you know. I thought I would check his status and is says the same thing!
 
Won't get a chance to make the call to CC today about DoDMERB issue on status site. Going to Italy tomorrow on a school trip and a research paper is due by the end of the day. Hopefully, those who do call, will be more than willing to share what CC had to say about the status page & DoDMERB things. Another day of waiting!!! :shake:
 
Cadet Command Facebook page

Just found CC's Facebook page. An inquiry was made on when to expect scholarship results from the 3/8 board.

This was their reply:" generally it takes somewhere between 3-4 weeks, due to some unexpected delays this year the process is behind its normal schedule. Our people are working hard to get results out as soon as possible for all boards." (This was posted 22 hrs ago)
 
3 vs 5 Boards

So has having only 3 boards especially with the unexpected delays been a better or worse situation for CC?

It will be loud here either way...Just want to move on and get the paper work done - at this point I don't even care if DS gets a scholarship or not, I'm just overwhelmed and underprepared to juggle everything on my plate right now. :wink:

Ditto on overwhelmed and underprepared :smile: Surely some of the CC staff are parents and understand the craziness we are all going through??:confused:
 
My DS status has changed to the following:

-----------------------------------------------------------
"You are currently an active eligible applicant for an Army ROTC Scholarship. If all of the items below have been received then we have everything in order for your file to be reviewed by the Board.

Transcript: Received
SAT/ACT Scores: Received
Interview: Received
Physical Fitness Test: Received
School Choice: Received

-------------------------------------------------------

I am not sure what this means. I tried to login to DODMERB, but I have not been added to their system.?.?.?.?

CC changed to this page for status last night sometime. We have all seen our DS/DD's pages reflect this, whether you have previously been DoDMERB qualified or not it shows the medical is not received. It was confusing at first, but it simply appears they changed the opening screen to show if all documents have been received. Doesn't help any of us to find out now if docs were missing, but it will be helpful for next years board applicants to see it in writing. Hope this helps.
 
You probably will not see an update to the medical based on dodmerb. That site is used for the application process thru offer but dodmerb is downstream of that.
 
Confused?

I have been checking the status of my arotc scholarship online and for a while it said the same old thing about me needing to do my interview.
Finally, it changed today, but I am now more confused than ever. It said:

You have been selected for an interview. Please contact the Professor of Military Science at the school of your choice.
Again, I am confused as to what this means? Why is it saying that my 'medical' has not been recieved when I was sure a physical was only needed if you were offered a scholarship? Please help!:help:
