About to send my third ROTC kid to school- Army and Air Force. Have never heard of parent orientation.

Last year, I took my son and 3 of his buddies out to lunch. We went to the movies (I think they all fell asleep for some of it), dropped friends off, went back to the hotel and my son took a nap. Graduation the next day. It was a great experience.

My MSII heard it was the written test, not the practical.

Both my husband and I did AROTC. Kids #1 & 2 are AROTC. Kid #3 is starting SFROTC. We discouraged our kids from seeking out ROTC roommates.

As a follow-up: DD wore school uniform to ROTC interviews. Was awarded NROTC, SFROTC and AFROTC scholarships. She came from school to interview and went straight back to school after. It might be interviewer dependent, but school uniform did not seem to have a negative impact.

That’s what I understood as well. Just clarifying from the comment above. USUHS is AD time. It is my understanding that if you want to have the best chance of receiving an ED for medical school, that you apply to USUHS as soon as you are eligible.

HPSP is considered Active Duty?

My daughter wore her school uniform. Awarded a 4-year Navy ROTC scholarship. Waiting on results from AF/Space Force. Agree with the former posters- they are coming/going from school.
