    Wrong height in Summer Seminar application

    Read back through the instructions. There are some comments on how to make changes or updates. I don't remember that as an easy process, however. Perhaps make a call to your BGO and see if they can get the info to the right person at Admissions. Assuming things work out ok (which they...

    Baffled by my SAT Scores

    No. They are talking about the Math and Critical Reading sections. The writing scores are required and will eventually be used for Whole Candidate Score... not sure if/when they will use Writing for the SLE app. Improving your math score will really help though. Keep on it until you get it...

    Contracting

    What does a scholarship student commit to when they "contract" in Army ROTC? What does the school/ROTC/Army commit to? Is there anywhere that a parent can go to read about this?

    General application question

    Do you know if you are the "principal" nominee? It should say on your letter from the MOC. Some designate a principal nominee and some don't. If you are unsure, perhaps you could call and ask the staff after you write them a letter of thanks. (hint hint) This makes a big difference since the...

    AROTC scholarship status question - medical

    DD was DoDMERB qualified in July of last year and it still is not updated on her portal. She asked about it several times and was told not to worry about it. Just hold on to the paper copy!

    Am I making the right choice?

    OK. You win. I'll just go back and row with the other slaves and let you resume your "reasoned and well-made arguments". I think right before I so rudely interrupted and soiled your field of honor you were in the process of telling someone (else) to shut up... So, Crouch... Touch...

    Am I making the right choice?

    ...wow. "SUNY Nowhere" "Birdpoop State" "Fox News antics" "Breast Enhancement" "The world needs ditch diggers, too" "...head back to the CGA Forum" Keep typing, Scout. You are making my point. You aren't cutting off petty squabbling... you are engaging in it. In fairness, you...

    Am I making the right choice?

    Where are we going with this? Nowhere good, that's for sure. I think we have beat this dead horse. Comments like these are shameful and provide no help to the OP.

    ROTC Scholarship deadline approaching! PLEASE HELP!

    Well said at the end there... good advice for all to keep in mind. DD is working through a similar issue so I sent her this link and told her I would hit you up for any additional advice. Here is the situation... she is accepted to two schools and has a 3 year AROTC scholarship to one of...

    Army ROTC offers

    Clarksonarmy... thanks for all your sage advice on this forum. I like your website, too. I have a question on the timeline for accepting an offer for an ARTOC Scholarship... DD is on the NWL at WP and also hoping for good news from the 09JAN AROTC Board. If offers from that board go out...

    Disappointed and Discouraged

    If the only reason you want to be a class officer (or a volunteer, or a varsity athlete, or a letter winner, or an SLS participant, or an Eagle Scout, etc...) is because it looks good on a college application... then maybe you don't have what it takes. But, as I suspect, you participate in...

    You want to be in combat?

    The mark of a promising young officer is the ability to shut up and listen. It's never too early to start. Again, the choice is yours. Well said. Also the mark of a promising young student, citizen, CEO, ditch digger, tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor.
