Some ROTC scholarships offer free or discounted room and board through the schools. Most of the schools I applied to for the Army ROTC scholarship offered the free room and board incentive.
Just wanted make that promise to "leave you alone." Thank you so much for your help. You were very instrumental in getting me medically qualified for AROTC. You rock!:rockon:
I haven't gotten all the way through the medical red tape caused by my DQs, but I am positive my chances of becoming medically qualified for AROTC have not been killed due in part by Mr. Mullen.
Just giving credit where credit is due: Thank you Mr.Mullen!:thumb:

A little background with the shoulder problem. I went to my ortho a month ago for an evaluation and told him I had trouble inflexible...
PMSs told me it does not make too much of a difference. It's not like you can have a 3.0 or something, get accepted by AROTC at MIT and get accepted to MIT because AROTC accepted you... I think it would help though if you were right on the line( 25th percentile perhaps).
