    Transferring as a Contracted Scholarship Cadet

    Hello, I am a 3 year AD scholarship cadet into the 2nd semester of my Sophomore year. When I got the scholarship, there were two schools that I had to decide between, **current school** and Embry Riddle Daytona beach. The decision was very tough for me, but I ended up choosing **current...

    CULP 2018

    Will they release the information on how we were placed in the OML? I was told it was mostly based on your GPA with the APFT being a smaller part of it, but I don't think that's the case as I got a 3.8 GPA and an average APFT score but didn't get a slot. It also may have been because I'm an MS2...

    Stuck on Interviewee Status-AROTC

    I'm not sure what the deadline date is for the second board this year, but it should be close. I would contact your ROO for where you did the interview and see what's going on if its still doesnt show up by the end of this week.

    Future!

    Hello, I am a 3 year scholarship recipient who just finished my first semester. I got a 3.6 GPA (Was 6% away on one test from getting a 3.9), and am a bit worried about my future when it comes to my aspirations. I am looking to get around a 3.6 overall GPA for the OML, but my major is in...

    Army ROTC Scholarship Chances

    Pretty sure they look at your GPA percentile more than your actual GPA.

    Contacted By AROTC Units Before Any Board Results?

    Some schools will even tell you if you got the scholarship well before they are supposed too, for recruiting purposes. I received a 3 year to my current school, but another school (I won't give names) called and said they would transfer it over, give me more benefits, etc. This did not make my...

    O-week

    I'm heading off to zero week for AROTC in about a week and a half. I can give you a good idea about what it's like for the Army after that, but you will probably already have someone answer your question with more depth by then.

    Simultaneous Membership Program ?

    My friend is doing SMP, and he is going to basic/AIT after his first semester. It is possible to do basic your Freshmen summer (summer after highschool) and then AIT your Sophmore summer. If you go through basic you do not have to do CIET. Of course, you would have to sign up for SMP a month or...

    Contracting in ROTC

    Thanks for the information! I am from Denver born and raised, so I don't have to worry about the altitude as much as those from out of state (hopefully.) The only thing I was concerned with is 4 years getting more training oppurtunities during their freshmen year, so hopefully that's not the...

    Contracting in ROTC

    Hello, as a 3 year AD scholarship winner I was informed that I would have to wait until the beginning of my sophomore year to contract. Is this the same for 4 year scholarship winners? If that is the case, do contracted 4 year freshmen get any different treatment/benefits/oppurtunities? Thank...

    Credit Hours for College

    Hello, I am wondering if your credit hours affect your standing on the OML for ROTC. For example, I am taking all required courses and have 16 credit hours, including Military Science. However, I have seen some freshmen take 22 credit hours when registering. Would having more credit hours make...

    Difficulty commissioning into the 101st and 82nd Airborne

    Ok, so I know that you can list your top 3 branches that you want to commission into, and if you do good you can get one of them. Are you saying that if I commission Infantry, I can request airborne through my branch manager?

    Difficulty commissioning into the 101st and 82nd Airborne

    Hello, I was wondering how competitive a cadet would have to be in order to commission into the 82nd or 101st, and the airborne as a whole. I could find information on Infantry, but not the airborne its self. Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    First Day of ROTC

    Do they provide uniforms for 3-year AD scholarship Cadets freshmen year? I know 3 years still receive the complimentary room and board stipend freshmen year just like the 4 years at my school.

    Should I get a congressman letter of recommendation?

    My Staff Sergeant for Future Soldier Training called in and formally made a recommendation for me. I also uploaded a letter of his. Not sure how it ranks on the importance scale, but my guess is pretty high. If you could get something like that, then I don't see why it would be overlooked. I...

    Venting a little...

    Yeah, thanks for the saying that. I still get excited thinking about what college and ROTC have in store for me. It is weird that some enlisted have told her she wouldn't be respected. I go to Future Soldier Training, and the Sergeants that I talk to there have all told me that they prefer 2nd...

    Venting a little...

    It seems to me that there are many people out there that do not really know about ROTC. When I talk to some people about it, they immediately think, "JROTC." It takes time to explain that ROTC is in fact a college level training program for Officers that is very large and intensive. But even...
