Navy ROTC Class of 2022

Thank you to everyone that responded. My DS is #36 on the list. Her school is incredibly expensive and it is stressing me out. I think I can relax when I see that she is medically qualified and there were no undiagnosed issues found. Her plan B & C schools are ranked in the top 10 schools for her major, so I feel bad committing to a spot that she will not use so that we have a safety net for her.
I feel you on this! DS has now banned me from reading anything in the DoDMERB section of this forum because it was stressing me out. Don’t worry she will be fine.
 
Congratulations to all...

The real work begins at NSO. Maintain your military bearings which you will learn a lot about. Take the tough right over the easy wrong on your decisions as you track forward. Remember “all” that have been there for you and who have played a part in you reaching this point in your life.

This journey that you’re about to take is not about you. T. Roosevelt was the only US President to give his inaugural address without using the word “l”. It will serve you all well to think about what that means.

All the very best, enjoy College and get ready to get salty.
 
For all who are still waiting on a decision, here's some info I received in calling the NROTC Program Selection and Placement Office this afternoon. The latest board met a week ago (notifications still pending), the final board meets next week, and all scholarship notifications should be completed by 15 May. Unfortunately, like most, we have tuition deposits due 1 May.

Amending #2...DD has decided that she is choosing MIT!:)

Good luck to all those waiting to hear about scholarships!!!
 
Sure is quiet here...with no new posts on the list of scholarship winners and schools.... Crickets
Still waiting...DS status still "No decision has been made..." Difficult since decision day is May 1--he's got a scholarship in-state with room and board. Prefers out of state school and NROTC, but waiting on NROTC decision. Looks like unless we hear before May 1, he'd have to accept the full ride in-state. Tough decisions, but good practice for life ahead.

My DS status is the same.....so is “no news good news” still something to have faith in?!?!? I’m glad his plan B is a good one!
 
@Gildersleeve
I had a child switch schools after the May 1st deadline.
We were refunded all non-refundable fees, including housing, registration, and student activities fees.
They would not refund the freshman orientation fee, but it was nominal.

This is good to know. His Principal is checking with the scholarship coordinator at our in-state school to see if there could be any issues. DS has worked so hard and was accepted to his dream school out of state but could not attend without a scholarship. If he does not get chosen for NROTC scholarship, he will need to confirm and accept the in-state scholarship--but the deadline is May 1. He also has to confirm at his dream school (for which we've paid housing dep, freshman orientation, enrollment deposit already). Anyone experience this issue? So hard.

A few years ago, my son was offered a full tuition scholarship on May 5 to a school he was accepted to after he had already committed to a different school. We advised the new school and they allowed him to commit after the May 1st deadline. We didn’t get our deposit back from the other school but in the end it was well worth the loss of $250!
 
Loss of 250 is totally worth that outcome! Thanks for the response--we could very well be waiting until May 15 per a previous post.

My DS was just awarded NROTC at Duke but he applied regular decision to Duke because he waited till the last minute to apply for NROTC. He was declined at Duke- HE has accepted his appointment to USNA.

Rejected for Pres. App't to USNA earlier this month o_O, NROTC Board got it right 2 weeks later - thank you!!!:bounce1::usa:
 
Go cocks....

My DS commissions out of the U of South Carolina in two weeks following in the unit alumni footsteps of kinnem’s DS. Can’t wait to render that first salute...his mentor is going down to give him his oath.

As Kinnem would normally say: “Hope your ready to clean the football stadium after the games.”

Sorry but post commissioning my hat switches to my DD’s unit at Holy Cross.

Cheers and all the best.

You're so fickle! :D
 
“My hypocrisy only goes so far.” Doc Holiday...

I have 3 to support. UCONN = Blue, U of South Carolina = Garnet and Holy Cross = Purple. I must love all three with equal passion.

I will however always remain a proud Navy veteran = Blue & Gold..

DS decided to ask for a transfer from Marquette to UW-Madison. The request was approved in less than 24 hours.
44. FoxPatrol/DS/23Apr/UW-Madison/Tier 1

Being an alumni of Marquette, I will admit UW-Madison is a great university, a degree from there will be of great benefit in the future.

I am very proud of my DS and still pleasantly surprised on his success with earning a 4 year scholarship. He is an Eagle Scout, a lifeguard, a former Senior Patrol Leader of his troop, runs jV cross country and track, scored a 31 on the ACT and has a gpa somewhere between 3.5 and 3.6 at a very strong college prep high school. I'm not sure what put him over the top considering all of the extremely qualified candidates, possibly his officer interview?

As for his decision to transfer to Madison, I will say the NROTC culture at MU is very strong and generally well accepted on campus; however I'm not familiar of how ROTC programs at UW-Madison are perceived on campus. Can anyone share their previous experience with this or other big state universities?
