    LOA questions

    Perhaps someone can answer this. How long, generally, should I receive an appointment if I received an LOA a month ago and my nomination was received by USAFA today. The nomination was the only thing specified in the LOA that needed to be completed. Thanks.

    "Back up plans"

    As someone who was denied my senior year to the academies, it's crucial to have a back up plan. Not only will it give you a huge burden off your shoulders but will also impress those interviewing you for nomination. If your goal is to attend a service academy never give that up. Not only will...

    College Grades

    Hi all, I am a current college freshman and have my EA application all wrapped up. The quarter just ended today and I have put in a request to send my grades this quarter to USAFA admissions. My question is how much more does the academy value college academic performance over high school...

    Roger. I guess no news is good news so far.

    Is the portal just the admissions page listing completed parts of the application, mailbox, and requires your SS and DOB to enter?

    13 AROTC Battalions scheduled to close

    UCSB Surfrider MS1 here. It's been a tough 24 hours. Cadre said we had full chancellor support to transfer within the UC System which helps. ( UC transfers are rare, especially for freshman)

    Application Questions

    Greetings all, I was hoping you could help me out on some questions I had while I wait for my ALO to return my call. First of all, I will be entering my first year at UCSB this fall after I was denied entrance to USNA and an AFROTC and NROTC scholarship. I am enrollment in the AFROTC program...

    ACT score for ROTC scholarship

    I believe the SAT/ACT score is one of the most important factors in selection, more so than the interview. A 29 should do you well for ROTC, any of the other branches you might consider taking a class. Good luck!

    AFROTC Language Majors

    Don't get me wrong, I find the language interesting and would be up to try it, I was just curious as to whether it would be something the Air Force places any weight into. Pima, I want to go rated but would take whatever they gave me. Would the language help in commissioning though? Sounds...

    AFROTC Language Majors

    So after a grueling year long process, the cadre at Detatchment 055 has my info and i will be in the program come fall! Through denials to NROTC and AFROTC scholarships and to the naval academy, the competitiveness of commissioning is kind of sinking in. Therefore, in an attempt to make...

    ucla afrotc

    I'm back with some info. The entire detatchment is about 100 cadets coming from 20 different schools. This year 15 people will commission so the attrition rate for each class can be figured about 60% Fortunately he said that is from the majority of people dropping on their own accord, not...

    I'm sitting down with the Cadre to discuss some of the specifics of the program next week. Ill be sure to post how it went. Unfortunately it's going to have to be quite appealing as ill be attending UCSB this fall. Otherwise ill probably be sticking with army.

    Questions to ask the Cadre

    Thank you, very helpful. Thompson- I do plan on making my service a career. My preference of which platform to fly however is negligible. I would be over the moon in either. From what Ive gathered on this forum is the SFT is a major hurdle for cadets and I would be curious to how they are...

    Questions to ask the Cadre

    Unfortunately I did not receive any xROTC scholarships this year. However, I do still plan on enrolling in a program and work towards that ultimate goal of commissioning. I enrolled at a University with AROTC and AFROTC so I plan on scheduling a block of time to discuss with the cadres of...
