Just out of curiosity, does anyone know the percentage of applicants (for any branch) that are awarded ROTC scholarships?
UNG's website said that 11,000 applied (Army ROTC), 5000 finished the entire application, and 2000 were awarded scholarships last year.
That number is dropping to 1800 awarded this year, so the percentage is 36% if 5000 finish their applications again this year. Keep in mind, more of those were be 3-years, but still scholarships nonetheless.
This shows the history through 2011 for NROTC, but as we say in the financial world - Past performance does not guarantee future results! Also, these numbers are higher than the acquisition goal. The Navy makes this many offers, assuming a certain rate of acceptance. I believe in 2012 they had a goal of 900 scholarship acceptances.
Apps Selects Percentage
FY06 3807 1895 49.8%
FY07 3832 2050 53.5%
FY08 4396 2492 56.7%
FY09 5065 2644 52.2%
FY10 5892 1480 25.1%
FY11 5445 1193 21.9%
This was from a powerpoint presentation that I found on a military college's website last year. I couldn't find a more current version.
