Reading your post today (almost 2 years later). Reading your post today (almost 2 years later). Would love to hear how you ended up? Did you make it into ENJJPT?

Had to take a quick moment to say this is a really nice post. Really well said.

Has anyone heard similar news? It sounds as though there may be a bit of a delay in receiving Rated Board results. Sounds like there may be a backlog from last year. As a result, it could be May or June before the current Air Force Junior Class (meaning USAFA and AFROTC) will hear whether or...

Question: Does this apply to AFROTC, NROTC, AROTC or all of the above..?

I have heard this in passing as well and wondering if there is any data that supports it.

Very nice that your ROO held a zoom meeting with the incoming scholarship recipients. That was a very good idea on their part. 'Communication is King'.

DS was Reboarded this morning as well. Stressful process. From what I have read, this type of process (interview, take an exam of some form, wait for the results, etc...) is fairly common in the life of a Military Officer. As much as I hate to say it, may be a good thing for our young ones to...

Congrats to your DS! You should be very proud. The Stats are incredibly competitive across the board (no pun intended) from what I have seen.

Thank you @Impulsive for the update. And a heartfelt congratulations to your DS for attending WP. Looks like twin #2 is attending NROTC as well. I am sure you are very proud. DS is planning to reach out to both COs (in-state & out-of-state) early next week (so as not to interrupt over the...

DS did do a campus visit and met with the COs of both his #1 (out of state) and his #2 (in state) Universities. Just wasn't sure if it was considered good bad or indifferent to reach back out to each of them after the interview. I will be sure to let him know. Thank you very much for the quick...

Appreciate your note above. My DS was Reboarded on Dec 20th. Needless to say, it was a very tough day for him. Question: When you say talk to his future CO, does that mean he should reach out to the Commanding Officer at the University for which he is hoping to receive the HSSP scholarship...

Thank you for the note @Pima Truly well said! (apologies, hair comment above was meant more figurative than literal. I may not have communicated that very well)

Glad to hear this for a variety of reasons. Not all 'Swim Team Captains', '4.3 GPA' Students, 'Excellent Test Takers' (i.e. 1500 SAT Score or 34 ACT), have great character. Some are wonderful young up-and-comers. Others can be self-centered, cocky, self-promoting, etc... Great Stats are...

Thank you Pima for the quick response. Good to know.

Question: I was under the impression All HSSP Scholarships are awarded/announced later in the year (for those graduating high school 2020). Based on your post, it looks as though your DS was awarded a scholarship as of last month (Sept). Is that to say, scholarships are awarded immediately...
