Hello,
My DS applied end of February for NROTC.
Two questions:
1) Has anyone received a Navy ROTC scholarship within the last few days?
2) He is planning to attend school and join ROTC regardless of scholarship. That said, anyone have knowledge, tips, or experience with obtaining a follow on 2nd year scholarship?
I'm thinking the late application coupled with ongoing sequestration would mean no more scholarships until next year. The Staff and Officers at his (accepted) school's units were very encouraging about "hearing news" this week. So far no change. His status is listed as: "no decision has been made on your application." They stated that the odds on the follow scholarship were very favorable which is contrary to what I have previously heard.
Many thanks.
