Got admitted to USMA off NWL last week. Going about filling out the necessary forms and background check and deposit, etc. I see that not only in the accepted packet but in the "instructions to Candidates offered Admission," that the Director of admissions keeps a making a point of it to say...

Hello Everyone! I received a manilla folder from USMA Association of Graduates yesterday, and I understand that I have been selected for a Civil Prep scholarship this year. While I still am hoping, praying that a beautiful black folder is coming my way for 2016, I would like to get some...

Hey everyone! I'm 3Q'ed and on the NWL (one nomination.) Today, during one of the thousands of times that I check the portal daily :), I saw that there was a different, yellow box on my USMA portal. It read: "Please allow up to 3 weeks for any manually processed documents to be updated"...

So I've been reading the previous thread about AROTC for the past few days and its really worrying me. Seems like slipping grades, a remedial APFT, or other things can end your scholarship right there. Whether or not all this talk (that is frightening to a scholarship recipient like me) is...

Hello: I have received a 3 year AD AROTC Scholarship to a certain University. My SAT composite score is 2070. Their average SAT score is 2060. My cumulative GPA is a 3.29. Their average cumulative is a 3.69. I have plenty of community and service extra-curriculars (I got an ROTC...

Hello: I had my congressional interviews on 12/3. I have learned today that I have received a "Principle Alternate Nomination" to West Point. I understand that this is like a second place, and if the principle nominee steps down or is found disqualified, I will receive the appointment...

Hello: I have learned in the past two weeks that I have received both an Army ROTC and a Navy ROTC scholarship to University of Southern California. I want to serve in both services--there are MOS's I could see myself in in either one. Nonetheless, I have to pick prior to 12/1. Can I...
