For clarification, If an applicant is awarded the 4 year scholarship and is accepted to their 1st choice school, the applicant is placed at the first choice correct? I believe I remember reading on the application that the 2-5 spots were only used to gauge interest for the programs there. Thanks.

On the DODMETS survey, I accidentally checked yes on a couple of questions. These questions are now locked and won’t let me change it. Any advice?

I have an interview with Warnock on Saturday
