That part isn't necessarily correct. If you are a freshman college programmer YOU CAN re-apply for the 4-year scholarship the same way to a high school student. This is what I did, and I just got notified I received the scholarship today. I HIGHLY recommend you do this. If you have any questions...

Got a call this morning from my OSO, picked up a 4-year scholarship, Marine Option. Socal. This was my second time applying for the 4-year scholarship. It was the first time they allowed current college program MIDN 4/C to apply for the 4 year. My stats are nowhere near as high as many other...

Graduated a few weeks ago, was recently denied for NROTC marine scholarship. Currently applying for College Program at Uni. Got this email recently from recruiting officer: So I guess this means I can go through the fun process of filling out a whole new application for NROTC while being a...

I got an email a month ago telling me I didn't get a scholarship. Interesting that my portal has still not updated. I am going for college programmer at the NROTC San Diego unit. I found it really interesting there was an entire process to go through to even be a college programmer. Including...

Got an email from my OSO telling me I did not receive a scholarship. Time to call my schools unit and get a college program application. Good luck to everyone else. I am disappointed but not surprised. Just gonna press on and hope for the best.

Congratulations on the scholarship. I am so nervous waiting for an answer. If you could link that information regarding the side load scholarships it would be greatly appreciated!

Can you walk on college program Marine option? Or do they require you to first go as a Navy option, then prove you have what it takes to switch over?

You went from a 20:08 to a 18:00 three mile in three weeks? That is damn impressive.

Wow, I can't believe it takes that long to get a negative reply. Is it pretty much safe to assume that if I don't hear anything in the next few weeks I didn't get it? I wish this whole system could be more efficient. I don't really have high hopes for getting a scholarship. I am almost waiting...

How long does it take for you to be notified if you did or did not receive a scholarship? From what I understand the board for MO meets today and I am anxious about finding out.

OSO told me NROTC marine boards meet on February 11th. Anyone else hear that? Also, how soon after the boards do you find out if you were accepted/denied?

Thanks for the information. Is there a difference between PLC and OCS?

Thanks! I will look into that!

For years I have always wanted to be in the military, I guess I never grew out of playing soldier as a kid. I have had my eyes set on being a pilot in the Navy for a couple years now, thinking there was no other future for me, but as I get closer and closer, I find myself growing unsure. My...

Thanks for all the information. I am planning to go Navy option and going with construction engineering. I am just going to keep studying and keep taking these tests to the best of my ability. There are plenty of other ways to earn a Navy commission that I will be driving toward if I don't...
