I received a 3 year scholarship from this recent board to my first choice of Virginia Tech. I am ecstatic and was just wondering how often they upgrade 3 year to 4 years on the third boards? Just wondering because 25K is a lot of money and want to start thinking about my money situation. Thank you!

I think we're all reading into it too much. The has been boarded but not selected is most likely referring to not being selected by the first board and just a way of separating those who were boarded on the first board. There is no way that they have made decisions yet, as people above have...

Hello, I was accepted to Virginia Tech, my number one school yesterday. My AROTC application has already been boarded and I know that they will not board it again. My question is will it make any difference if I upload my acceptance letter? I realize it probably won't impact the board's...

Hello, I have applied to ARTOC and submitted my application in July. The first selection board is currently convening and I was just curious about when the earliest I could potentially hear about receiving a scholarship? If anyone who previously received a scholarship or anyone who knows when...

Yes forgot to mention in original post I was a captain for football and was I guess what you could call a manager when working as a deckhand . Do the boards take into account work experience like that?

Thank you very good points, I agree I need more leadership spots, what did your son do for leadership spots in order to receive a first board selection?

Yes thank you I appreciate the help but luckily I already have a khan academy account and have been using it this year to get ready for the sat this spring

Thank you yes I agree that my SAT needs work as that was my sat score from last year as a sophomore so I plan on seeing some improvement after this year with all the studying and prep work.
