    Army ROTC Board Question

    My portal just changed this weekend to say that my application has been boarded. Does anyone have any idea how long after the board I will be informed of their decision? I know that no one can know for sure, but an idea would be welcome!

    Waiver Question

    So I was just notified that I DQed with D155.70 Myopia - refractive error greater than -8.00 diopters (spherical equivalent). I have a LOE to USMA so I assume that I will qualify for waiver consideration. Two questions: 1) Is there anything I need to do to pursue a waiver or is it all done...

    SLE Instruction Fix

    No, after your offer kit has been received they will open up 3 more links for you. One of them is called SLE Information and it contains everything from the packing list to schedules to rules to travel information.

    SLE Instruction Fix

    Hey guys! When I checked my candidate portal for the SLE instructions, the link they gave me didn't work. After my dad and I looked at it we were able to fix it. In the URL, change SLS to SLE. Hope that helps anyone who needs it!

    Sorry for the grammar, it has been a really long week. Again, I want you guys to know that I fully trust you guys, and respect all of your advice.

    What can I do to improve my chances?

    I understand where you are coming from, but at my school, to switch from what I am doing to a sport would be for nothing but to check a box.

    What can I do to improve my chances?

    I guess my main question is what is the difference between marching band and say tennis. In marching band, the leadership aspect is huge, especially since the directors delegate a large part of the responsibility to the leaders. They are in charge of some practices, and keeping up with the...
