    Scholarship allocations

    Basic AROTC Questions

    Thanks for the input. I was also wondering, if I send my AROTC application to so that it is reviewed by a later board would this be beneficial or do the number of scholarship offers dimminish with each round of offers. Also, how many times does the board meet to review applications.
