So I was accepted into Virginia Tech's General Engineering and Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets, and I have a few questions.

1. Does ROTC classes interfere with college life/academics/and my major in mechanical engineering?
2. Am I allowed to quit ROTC without any obligations? If not, am I allowed to quit right now without getting denied admissions to Virginia Tech? Or am I allowed to quit after Freshman year and still be enrolled with the school's program?
3. Since I also got accepted to Virginia Tech's Emerging Leader Scholarship(2.5k for freshman, 3k for sophmore, 3k for junior, and 4k for senior), once I quit the ROTC before sophomore year, do I have to pay back my scholarships?

PS: I will be an incoming freshman and I am OOS and also I did not apply for the Army ROTC scholarship.
thank you very much

* I know I can call them, but it's weekend and they are closed. I also emailed them, but I'm so anxious to find out the answer right now lol.

There is a thread in this forum dedicated to all things ROTC.
It does sound like a lot of your questions are more specific to VATech, so contacting them or the unit there may be your best bet.
Good luck.
