Georgetown University / Accepted -- Texas

I received an ISR scholarship earlier this year. In the contract it states, "I also understand that this contract places me under no obligation to accept an NROTC scholarship." In other words, it is not binding and you are allowed to continue to pursue service academy admittance, other ROTC...

I was offered an ISR just last week. The commanding officer interviewed me for about 10 minutes and just asked me about my desire to join the Navy and then asked me if I had any questions for her. It seemed as though they were already planning on giving me the scholarship regardless of the...

Hi Everyone, Tonight I was awarded an NROTC 4-year scholarship as an Immediate Scholarship Recipient (ISR). I started applying the first day the application opened and I am very happy to have received this designation so early in the year and the college application process. Thank you to anyone...

Having posted a chance thread myself and read countless other 'chance' posts by other forum members I can tell you that they (current cadets, cadet parents, admins, ALO's) will all say the same thing to you when you ask if you have a chance. They'll say, no one can tell you for sure if you have...

Here are my stats! SAT I (breakdown): 1440/1600 (730 Math 710 Reading) (20/24 Essay) ACT (breakdown): Not taken SAT II: 710 Spanish, 800 Math II Unweighted GPA (out of 4.0): 3.95 Rank (percentile if rank is unavailable): Top 5% AP (place score in parenthesis): AP Computer Science (4), AP World...

Hi everyone, I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread for the applicants to the AFA Class of 2021 in which applicants can post their statistics so they can see how they compare to other applicants. I have created the form below and if everyone could post using the same format that...

Thanks! Will do. I am a 2021 applicant and the 2021 Application is open. Just for Navy though.

Hi, My counselor received an email from my NROTC coordinator today that said that because my profile is so competitive they are considering giving me a scholarship notification before the boards meet. I didn't get to see the email so I'm not 100% sure of its content but this is what my...

Hi, I am in the process of applying for NROTC/AFROTC and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in reading my essays? (Both for ROTC and regular college admissions) So far I have written one Common app essay and one NROTC essay. Let me know and I will PM you the essays. Thank You!

Hi All, I am attempting to access the NROTC 2017 Application but am unable to get on the website. I have tried installing the DoD root certificates like the site recommends but I am not sure if this is the issue. Has anyone else had this issue in the past or been able to access the site...

Ah, okay. I was unaware of this -- I thought the same events were used during the test at the AFA as well. Thank you for clearing that up sir.

Do they change the events for the CFA once you are at the academy or were the events different when you were there? Because the events for the candidate CFA are: 1-mile run, Pull-ups, Push-ups, Basketball throw, shuttle run, and sit-ups if I'm not mistaken.

@usafa12 For the academy do they want you to maintain your CFT results around what they were when you entered or near the admissions average? (Or neither) I'm sure they want you to be above some threshold in each event or they will put you on 'Physical Probation' (not sure of the exact term)...

I was wondering if any forum members have any idea about how strict the Air Force Academy is when it comes to Cadet Fitness Assessment regulations? I'm mostly asking because my push-up form is not the prettiest but I can do a good amount of reps. Is it important that I have perfect form or is it...
