    2 week NROTC Orientation - Middle of the Summer?

    That's odd. I'm not sure why my unit is telling me I can't attend. Perhaps they don't want me wasting my time if my waivers aren't granted?

    I got the letter for the indoc at Great Lakes, but I'm not DoDMERB qualified (pending waiver for months already). I was told by unit that I could not attend indoc since my waivers weren't granted

    High School Awards Night

    My friend had his AROTC scholarship presented at his high school awards night yesterday. He told me he didn't receive a "big check", which was unexpected. My school won't be having a separate awards night but a special recognition towards the end of graduation. If I wanted to get a big check...

    How can I convince my parents?

    Thanks. They're still a bit reluctant but it's a LOT closer since its USC (I got rejected by USNA so....:(). I'll be 18 at the end of this year so they'll have little say even if they still don't want me to serve.

    Received remedials due to mistake on AMI; fixable?

    My optometrist has written a letter correcting his mistake and included my most recent and previous manifest refraction results. Will DodMERB honor this? He has offered to call on my behalf but I'm unsure who to contact at this point.

    Received remedials due to mistake on AMI; fixable?

    I recently emailed my AMIs to DoDMERB regarding a remedial due to a past surgery (It was cleared and subsequently removed). However, I also received a disqualifier (D211.40) for my color vision. I decided to see my optometrist to get a second opinion and forwarded his findings and previous...

    How can I convince my parents?

    It's a number of reasons....some of my elder family members saw war in Asia (they were conscripted by their respective country), career reasons, and perhaps they don't think I'm suited. My parents would much rather have me go to the same university as my older brother goes to and pursue a...

    How can I convince my parents?

    I've tried explaining to them the great benefits and opportunities and they've done research on academy life as well, but they still say no. I really hope if that if I get a nomination and appointment, they will change their minds. Thanks all for the advice.
