Hello. I am trying to figure out a little bit more about some specific details that differ between AFROTC and NROTC. I have not yet gotten a decision on either my AF nor Navy scholarships yet, but I am aware that I might not earn either.
In the case that I do not earn either, which ROTC branch should I go down that would offer me a better shot at getting a tuition scholarship for my school?
I am by no means doing ROTC just to pay for my school, so please don't say that! My issue is that I was only accepted to OOS schools that will be difficult for me and my family to pay for otherwise. I desire to serve as a commissioned officer and that is the #1 reason for me wanting to participate in ROTC.
I currently do not have much of a preference between the two branches as I like different aspects of each that would suit my desired job.
I know that AFROTC guarantees scholarships for students junior and senior years which is a big relief knowing that if I put in the effort, I will earn at least some level of a scholarship. Does NROTC do this too?
In addition, does anyone know if one branch has slightly easier to earn side load scholasrhips for freshman and sophomore college programmers? I am going to major in Computer Science.
Also if anyone has any other inside information about anything AFROTC or NROTC, please share!
Sorry for the essay, I just have a lot of questions.
