Certain programs within a college (ie college of nursing) may have a higher GPA standard.

Your DD's journey sounds like my DD's. She loved WP, but she couldn't see a clear end game into the medical profession, even if she obtained a kinesiology degree. She went the AROTC nursing route and, so far, so good.

Thanks for this info. My DD is just starting her journey. MS1 in the nursing program.

I'm sure there are plenty of good NROTC programs across the country. Is he being recruited as a D1 athlete?

She received an email a while back indicating payment was made, but nothing showed up in her account. Did this occur with other GMB cadets?

Send them in. Results are superscored.

All of her applications were in by Nov 01 2016. She applied to nursing schools, therefore she had to do early action. Please note I changed spring 2016 to spring 2017 in my first reply to you.

Yes, it's worth applying. There are 10 NROTC boards I believe. My DD was offered an NROTC scholarship on the 10th board, in late spring 2017.
