Good morning all, Recently I have been pretty certain that I wanna go to medical school. I’m currently a 4/C in my NROTC program so I have no obligation until next year. NROTC has so far been great. NSI was rewarding, I love Thursday drill, and overall it’s been awesome and I really wanna stay...

I think you spent way too much time setting the scene and not explaining how you have the qualities that will make a great officer. I got the scholarship last year and in my essay I described the qualities leadership that I read from a self-growth book and then gave real-life examples of how I...

Some were either sick or passed out during PT, most DOR’d after about the first 3 days. NSI isn’t very “fun”, it’s a complete grind. You got Marine DIs yelling at you 24/7, you wake up at 4am, you stand all day, you can’t talk, etc. it’s not easy and quitting is the easy way out. A lot of people...

There were 540 who started NSI (490 graduated) cycle 1. There was college programmers there though so I would estimate the total national scholarships around a thousand... I don’t know about cycle 2, but I heard from midshipman instructors that they are cutting back on the 4 year scholarships...

What travel order? I’m part of the UC Berkeley Unit and I got no official travel orders only a email that says what to do when I land. Are those the orders you’re talking about? I haven’t read anything that I’ve been sent that told me to bring 5 copies of travel orders.

I’m getting a regulated cut because it says to do so, but are they going to buzz it off anyway when I get there? My dad said they shaved it off regardless in his basic.

I haven’t heard from any source that we should go into indoctrination with anything but physical fitness. Should I learn about Naval history and chain of command before hand? I have a lot of free time so what should I get to know? Trying to be the best I can be for the 3 weeks of indoctrination.

A 760 on English on the SAT is impressive. A 1470 will definitely cut it anywhere, but you could definitely raise that math score. I won the scholarship this year with a 1480, but I got a 800 on math. If you wanna go MechE, my guess is you’re pretty good at math. Just take some practice tests...

Are there any NROTC, AFROTC, or AROTC cadets going to UC Berkeley next year and want to room?

can my dermatologist write a email to the DoDMERB or should I ask him to write a letter so I can send it to them? I am currently in the waiver process.

When were you DQd? How long did it take to get the waiver? I am currently DQd for psoriasis and just started the waiver process...

Sorry I released I just posted this on ROTC and not DODMERB

So the time has finally come, I had my requests for remedials and it looks like I’m going to get DQd for psoriasis. So my question is what is the time frame of this cause I gotta commit to a school by May 1st. Also has anyone ever got psoriasis waved for NROTC? I had it for a month period when I...

Hello all, so I was awarded a NROTC scholarship under a Chemical Engineering major at USC. Now I was lucky enough to be accepted at USC and UCLA, but I’m a chemistry major at UCLA. I am seriously leaning towards UCLA now. I’ve looked more into grad school options and I think chem is the right...

I was awarded a NROTC scholarship and have completed my medical examinations but I had psoriasis when I was 13 (has never comeback) so I’m anticipating a DQ. USC, UCLA, and UCB come out this week or next week and I plan on attending one of them if I get it in. My question is what if I’m not...

So I was awarded a NROTC scholarship with a ChemE major, but the schools I applied to with ChemE are all very competitive so my back ups are UCs where I am a chemistry major. My fear is if I get a chem B.S. then have to serve 5 years what am I going to do when I get out. I’ll be honest but I...

I received my scholarship like a week ago, must of been from the 1/28 board. Still some more boards to hand out scholarships. Good luck!

I’m saying email both the admissions office at usc and the nrotc unit at usc

Should I just send a email to both saying this is my number one choice and I’ve been awarded a scholarship?

I was just awarded a NROTC scholarship and USC(SoCal) is my first choice. I was just wondering should I notify the school or unit of my scholarship acceptance. Will that help my admission chances? I am Chemical Engineering, so it’s obviously very competitive and I’ll take anything I can get to...
