My son is also going there on a 4 year! Also engineering!

He did not advise reporting the injury since it is minor.

I did consult with Dr. Merchant, who called me promptly and answered my question. Thanks for sending me over to him!

My son has been awarded a 4-year AROTC scholarship. He will be using it for tuition, so that is not taxable. His university has awarded him a room and board scholarship, so that is non-taxable. I understand that he will also be receiving a $1,200 year book allowance, and a $300/month stipend for...

Thanks for all the advice. He went today and the x-ray was negative. No recheck is necessary. Does he need to advise Concorde with a status change since it is not fractured?

My son has received an offer of a 4 year AROTC Scholarship, accepted, and has gone for his medical exams. I don't know the status of the exams; it was only last week. He has since injured his hand. It's likely fractured. He does not want to seek medical attention since he is worried that it will...

Thanks! That is so helpful!

My son received the letter with information about his DoDMERB. It says to schedule the audiologist and eye exam first. Will he be allowed to do all three on the same day, if scheduling permits? The location is about an hour away in a congested city with little parking. He will likely need to...

No letter yet in NJ.

My son was contacted by the local battalion for the presentation, and they gave him a choice of whether he wanted them to come to his school. He chose to opt out of the check presentation. He told them that it was very kind of them to offer, but that he was certain they all had very busy...

My son heard from schools #1 and 3 on his list that he will be receiving a 4 year offer to their schools. "Local" battalion contacted him by phone yesterday to ask when is a good time for presentation of giant check at his school. Don't know when the presentation will be. Live in Northern NJ...

Some schools offer room and board to their ROTC scholarship students. You can find that information on the GOARMY website under "search for colleges." They list them by location.

clarksonarmy checked for my son and said that he should contact with his ROO, not that he was passed to the second board. He sent an email to his first choice school who replied that he should expect to have a happy holiday. He's not heard anything else. We assume that he just has to sit tight...

tjb1975...where do you live? I'd be interested to know which battalion called. We've not heard a peep, only an email from his number 1 early last week that results would be out soon and to watch the portal.

Maybe they are updating it???

This makes me very uncomfortable...to potentially have them come to my home with a giant check. I can't imagine how awkward it would be all around. Should I invite them in for refreshments? I live in a populous state, and we are still a drive of over an hour from the nearest ROTC college.

Here's a question...when they do update the website and announce the scholarship "winners," will they update everyone at once, or a few at a time?
