I'm deciding between Army or Air Force ROTC but I have some conflicting thoughts that need to be cleared.
1. AROTC, ex: If Fordham University is the Host University for ROTC in the area, but I attend New York University, must I travel to Fordham every single time for PT and ROTC Classes? Or are PT held at New York University but ROTC Classes are held at Fordham?
2. AFROTC, ex: Same concept as the first question but Manhattan College instead of Fordham University. (AF Recruiter told me that I need to go to Manhattan College for even PT when the school I plan on attending is on the other side of town, which is pretty insane. But an AROTC Cadet told me that PT is held at the university I attend)
3. AROTC, What are exactly Partner Schools? It is a list of select schools from a list of schools that students at following Universities can take AROTC classes from. Does that mean that Type 1 Scholarships can be handed out to Partner schools rather than the original rule where Type 1 Scholarships are only handed out to if you decide to attend the Host University?

That's the site if you scroll down to Fordham University that I'm quite confused with. Because it states that Type 1 (Full Tuition) Scholarships can be handed out to non-host schools such as New York University or Columbia University.
Topics such as where classes and PT are held at which and which universities and which Scholarships at which and which universities are still mind boggling for me. The fact that I'm deciding between Air Force and Army ROTC as a future Engineer (not sure in which field yet) major is something big to consider because of school costs and also traveling wise.
This is all I can think of right now, but any insight on these questions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
