Thanks. It is a full (tuition) scholarship, and I’m starting to lean towards ND. I hear back from them this week/next week, and should hear from USMA within the next month or two. I kind of need to look into ways to fund room and board at ND, since ROTC Scholarship doesn’t cover that, but...

Thanks, just thinking

Thanks. How was your experience at ND?

I would request to transfer the ROTC scholarship to UChicago or Vanderbilt... if I don’t get into either of those either I’d go to either UNC or Marist if I am allowed to transfer the scholarship to them... if I can’t I’d go to the one that gives me the best money, and do ROTC without the...

Right. My whole thinking here is if I get into both. I know I still have a lot of time to think about it, I guess it’s just that I tend to over-think things like this.

Thanks. To clarify, prestige actually is the last thing on my mind. I’m genuinely fine either way with everything else, including what you mentioned... that’s why I turned to the forums for help. Your response helped me feel better about the whole thing though.

I went to SLE and I loved it. I also visited Notre Dame and loved it. I’m kind of a service guy, which is why I want to join the army, but also why I like Notre Dame so much.

For a while now, I have been bouncing back and forth between whether I should go to USMA or Notre Dame for ROTC. I really like both schools, and I would probably study Political Science either way. I just really don't know which one to choose. I won an ROTC scholarship to Notre Dame, so money...

Qualified :)

I contacted DoDMERB and West Point and apparently they lost my file in one of their server maintenance sessions, so they needed to have it re-sent. Hopefully I get an email within the next few days.

Did, it’s not in there

How long did it take after having your medical status updated on the SA Portal for you to get an email? It’s been just about a month already for me, is that normal?

I go to dodmets.com and then Applicant Login, type in SSN and last name but it says “Log In Failed! Incorrect user name or password.””

My Medical status for USMA was changed to SCHEDULER FORWARDED TO DODMERB on 8/10. I contacted DoDMERB asking about when I would be able to log in, and I was told around 8/15. There were posts around that time that there were issues with the website, so I waited a while. I was also following SA...

Thank you, I’ll probably just get a plain black pair. Hopefully they don’t break though!

I guess that would make sense, I’m probably overthinking it. Thanks.

They issue glasses for CBT, but you don’t have to wear them afterwards. I was referring to glasses to wear for the rest of the year after training.

I currently wear contact lenses and am considering switching back to glasses... I was also concerned about the Army Regulations for eyeglasses since I hope to attend USMA, so I reviewed AR 670-1, and was worried about “Eyeglasses or sunglasses that are trendy, or have lenses or frames with...
