I am going to take a different approach.
First, collegesomeday please understand that intonation cannot be detected on forums, so no flaming me for my response. My post is meant with kindness.
Your post of if they don't want me because you gravitate to clubs, read a little like boff them! The comment doing sports is not an optuon , is not really true. The reality is it is an option, but not one that you are willing to do due to the fact that it means sacrificing some club you are involved in currently.
Now, to some other aspects to ponder.
1. Do you have a part time job?
~~~ Our DS never did hs sports, but he filled the square because he did TKD competitively (Jr Olympian and 2 time state champ). His rising junior year, he stopped TKD and became a lifeguard. He got a job with the Y. He had 23 saves in a course of a year. AFROTC saw that not only from an athletic perspective, but also leadership. He filled two squares with one position
Ask yourself if you are working a part time job at Target, and need sports, wouldn't this be a better option?
2. 95% of NROTC applicants do not apply to an SA as plan B, but 95% of SA candidates do apply to ROTC as plan B.
~~~ Yes, you have great stats, but there are things missing in your postwhen it comes to the PAR portion.
~ school profile. Number 1 is great, but if 0% go Ivy, now compare that to the candidate that is applying as plan B, and they are number 1 at a school that the top 25% go Ivy.
~ GPA varies hs to hs. Is your cgpa unweighted? What is the weight of AP? 4.5, 5.0, 6.0? They will use their own algorithm to adjust your cgpa if the weight does not match. IOWs it might drop if you are saying 4.0 and that is weighted. It might go up if it is unweighted.
~NROTC super scores SATs. 2200 predicted is a great score do not get me wrong, but you can keep taking it over and over again. I am assuming you scored a 220 on your PSAT. If so, I would think you are an NMSF. Remember to place that on your resume. If your PSAT score was @185, expect to study, to get up to 2200, and think about taking the ACT.
3. 85% of scholarships for NROTC go STEM. Are you going STEM? Asking because you have interest in hs in poll sci.
~~~ having a hole for athletics and wanting to go non-STEM will impact your chances. The scholarship process is national.
Finally, read the doesn't make sense thread. Long time posters typically do not like chance to candidates because there are too many variables, including school choice for A/NROTC. Are your academic stats strong? Strong enough for a scholarship without athletics? Maybe depending on the college you are applying to for the NROTC scholarship. I wouldn't doubt in VA you could be a match for VT admission, but I would not say it is a guarantee of an NROTC scholarship as a non-STEM.
Talk to posters like Kinnem about how to contract without scholarships
Also, realize that for the next 8 years (4 in ROTC, 4 AD), the Navy will have the upper hand in your life decisions, especially when you go AD. You want X career, they give you Y. You want to be assigned to Pensecola, they assign you to Washington state. You want to attend your siblings wedding, they deploy you. That is the world you are walking into. It might also be why some posters are having issues with I can't, because when you go AD there is no I can't. There is only I will.
