It depends on the unit. Some units give out much more than others. Unfortunately mine does not really do upgrades, but I know others quite frequently give out upgrades as long as the cadet impresses that first semester.

you should get an email within the future on instructions about dodmerb and it should be completed before you hit campus.

i am strongly considering changing my major from journalism to finance. I am an incoming Freshman so it should be pretty easy, but I am wondering if I should email the ROO about it first?( I am AROTC)

You're going to UNT?

Someone should be in contact with you. I got an email yesterday from the closest ROTC unit to my high school and they will be in collaboration with my school regarding the award presentation.

Just checking to confirm, but I do bring my medical exam packet to the optometric exam too?

I also have that same question. I sent my letter of intent through my application a few days ago so I imagine it should my pretty soon.

I would check the file upload box and if there is a winner letter there that’s a pretty good sign. I received my letter and mine also is in set boarded/uc

Mine today! My status was also not updated to winner either.

For Texas schools if you recieve a competitive scholarship over 1,000 dollars, you get the in state tuition rate. It’s called the competitive scholarship waiver.

I would say you definitely still have a chance. My status remains the same as yours, however I contacted my top 3 schools just to make sure and they all said I was awarded a 3 year AD scholarship to their school. I would contact your top schools as well if I were you.

I would call the ROO at the schools you want to go to, because mine also says boarded/uc but when I called 2 of my schools they said I received a 3 year AD scholarship.

I am planning on attending one of 2 colleges and use my father’s GI Bill the first year and hopefully I’ll be able to earn an on campus scholarship my second year.

Were you boarded 1st board ?

Explanation is so much clearer now.
