So even though I would come in with the associates, as long as I am medically qualified and pass the fitness test then I should be fine to actually receive benefits from the scholarship? This is where it gets all confusing because it states that the scholarship can be applied during my sophomore year of college, however, after discussions with the ROO at my intended school he said that I will probably have my time shortened to 3 years for college(would be 2 years but due to ROTC I have it spread to 3 because I have to complete the basic courses) and possibly get waived/be able to work around the MS1 class requirements due to my involvement in JROTC. All that I hope is that I can take full advantage of the scholarship as it is a huge blessing to even have. I suppose this is more of a talk to have with the PMS, ROO, and advisor are my intended school I suppose. Again, it’s just all confusing because of how the scholarship works and when it is applied.
