I am west of the MS River but not all of the 3/C in my unit is going to San Diego, some got selected to go to CORTRAMID/Marine Month over in East Coast

A college programmer is a college student who enters the resepective ROTC unit without being on scholarship- it really is a great option for those interested:)

I'm scheduled to go to San Diego this summer- if you haven't heard about summer cruise yet you will very soon

I just received a TWE as well, but am happy to continue with my NROTC unit:) I am very happy with the family I built here- Good luck to those still waiting!

Just received a TWE by email a few minutes ago but am happy with continuing with my Plan A-: I just was promoted to a 3/C MIDN and a Squad Leader in charge of six mids in my unit- I am very happy with the family I have built here and am happy to continue with my life at my NROTC unit:)

I know this has already been said several times but I want to reiterate that the race is not over until you ACTUALLY see a TWE on your portal! I am in the same boat as a few of y'all: I haven't heard anything back from USNA and I don't have an LOA or a waitlist offer. What I do know is that if...

Talk to your advisor at your unit. There will usually be another set of paperwork you would have to complete. Hope this helps!

If this year was like last year's process, it should show up on your DD's portal when she clicks "Check Status." It would show that she received the 4 year NROTC Scholarship and what school/detachment your DD was placed at. Your DD should also get two forms via email (also should be on the...

They are still giving out LOAs? even now? Congrats!!

Great questions @Heatherg21 ! For your first question: I tried to improve in pretty much every category and was mostly successful. Unfortunately the high schools in my area had trouble scheduling both the SAT and ACT exams so I wasn't able to improve on that this year because I never had the...

As far as physical training went, I would've liked the opportunity to workout with my unit and build comradery within it but the school that hosted my unit wasn't allowing us to officially PT together so our PTO of my company created recommended workout plans to follow each week. This wasn't...

I would say so since I received the scholarship with a lower ACT score, but I also had several other things going on as well. Like the academies, the NROTC Scholarship board reviews the applicant as a whole and not necessarily based solely on academics. However, on another note, since a 29 isn't...

Like the title says! Happy to help any of y'all going through the process

Self/No LOA/3Q w/ two noms (MOC & NROTC) College reapplicant- Plan B to fall back to my NROTC unit but hopeful for an appointment this year after a turndown last year Happy to see that I'm not the only one:)

I was in a similar position as your DS- after my CO offered my nomination, my AO let me send the LOR to her via email but said that she needed me to send the original copies of the nomination and the LOR via snail mail and she would confirm that admissions has received it once it arrives- this...
