NROTC Marine Option Results
My DS got his NROTC-MO scholarship. He is over the moon. He has busted his hump for two years to get here. A great outcome; our DS focused on a goal and achieved it. LT COL Kirkland at ROTC consulting was a huge help and we are very grateful to him - he helped our DS show them who he is. He... -

NROTC Marine Option Results
My DS's OSO is a responsive guy - when my DS pinged him ~10 days ago with a text he got an immediate reply. Just a ping ("I'm keeping in shape!") type thing. The OSO said he could not release results from the board yet. I think we will see activity here on the board when they start letting... -

NROTC-MO Second Boards

NROTC MO, PLC and Army ROTC
Thanks, USMCGrunt! I think he is torn. Badly wants USMC but it would break his heart to not be in any branch. If he thought that being a Marine officer was a strong possibility via any route that is what he would do. He would do what it takes if it is open to him. He gets it. I was personally... -

NROTC MO, PLC and Army ROTC
Thanks for the inputs. He accepted the AROTC scholarship, and would go Army (ideally special forces if he got there) - they only give you 30 days and he had no choice on that. He would go with the Army if the Marines are not available as an option. It is complicated. I had read somewhere on... -

NROTC MO, PLC and Army ROTC
My DS was accepted at his #1 school (Tulane) and has an Army ROTC three year scholarship. He wants to be a Marine officer badly though and is waiting for the results of the February board. The captain who is his contact says he has a good chance, but DS is trying to figure out what to do if he...
