    AFROTC Scholarship Board - Week of March 23, 2020

    The ROTC folks at HQ don't understand the human suffering they inflict by stringing people along unnecessarily. If the person is worthy of a scholarship, then make a decision.

    AFROTC Scholarship Board - Week of March 23, 2020

    This is a good way to look at it. I frankly don't understand fully why both Army and Air Force ROTC string candidates along like this.

    Is Air force just as respectable as the army?

    Simple Answer: No. ;-)

    AFROTC Type 2 and 7 scholarships upgraded to Type 1 for ivy league

    It's too bad that this was sent after the admissions deadline. Also, why these schools only? Why not other comparable schools like Cal Tech, Dartmouth, Washington U, ect.

    Thanks for the correction. Type vs. Tier.

    Apply Later to Increase Chances for a Air Force Tier I Scholarship?

    Sounds like the case. See my previous post on the issue you bring up here: https://www.serviceacademyforums.com/index.php?threads/overemphasis-on-the-detachment-interview-for-the-air-force-rotc-high-school-scholarship-hssp-progr.68757/

    Apply Later to Increase Chances for a Air Force Tier I Scholarship?

    All, Just an observation and [possible] theory regarding the Air Force Tier I Scholarship awardees. I’ve worked with several candidates this year who I consider outstanding candidates who were diligent and made the early Air Force ROTC scholarship boards in September and October. These...

    Units with Strongest Relationship with Admissions

    The only way to know any of this is to call the units themselves and ask. Speculation here is just that.

    Initial thoughts on the first Army ROTC Scholarship board results

    The essay won't be reviewed because you have already been boarded. The only thing that will move the needle (barely) at this point is an increase in SAT/ACT.

    Initial thoughts on the first Army ROTC Scholarship board results

    A rise in the ACT super score from a 24 to a 28 would amount to 30 additional points out of 1400. It might make a slight difference at this point. It would have had a greater impact if that higher score went in front of the board (you are only boarded once). That's why I encourage my...

    AROTC Board #1 Scholarship Winners

    It was a serving PMS in 2010 and I didn't have access to the candidate's full application as you claim here. The PMS was likely referring to your son's ACT/SAT and perhaps a couple of other factors he/she did have access to. I do think stats on this forum provided by other posters give one a...

    Initial thoughts on the first Army ROTC Scholarship board results

    Little impact, in any, (unfortunately) unless there is a significant rise in the super score.

    Initial thoughts on the first Army ROTC Scholarship board results

    All, I’ve done an initial analysis on the Army ROTC candidates who I advise. I have controlled for most of the other variables as my work with them helps them max out other areas such as activities, essays, and the PT test. They are all similarly prepared by me for the interview. I do...

    AROTC Board #1 Scholarship Winners

    If that was your true profile, you are definitely an outlier. I had several folks I work with who scored much higher stats and had a great profile and didn't get the scholarship. All the stars aligned for you.
