    NROTC (MO) – When are you "a Marine"?

    MO Midn who attended NSI in the summer of 2019 were issued and wore the EGA on their hats and boards. How does that differ in this question/ conversation thread? Curious.

    NROTC CORTRAMID

    I will remain hopeful for your 4/C class as well! My 3/C didn't get his summer CORTRAMID, but did experience NSI the year prior. It's been a bumpy year, all around.

    Question About 4 Year Graduation

    In addition to what others have said about staying on track and providing a plan to his CO, my MO/4C son has now registered for his second year (fall term) of college, and because he is NROTC, he is given an earlier registration date/time. Not sure this holds true for all schools obviously, but...

    ROTC and Closed Universities

    My son's cross-affiliate campus where his NROTC is held is extending spring break and starting online classes 4/3 for three weeks. Effectively, that brings my son to the end of his semester, although his college hasn't said a word yet about going online. #stillinlimbo Being out of state adds...

    Summer College Coursework

    My DS has a 4-year plan and yes, in conversation with his MO and receives regular review & approval. I was looking for personal feedback and history on any successes. There is also a change in leadership happening this spring, so hopeful for continuity. For ease in timing, this may end up in...

    Summer College Coursework

    Anyone have knowledge to whether the NROTC scholarship covers any summer coursework taken? My son may want to take a college class/session after CORTRAMID this summer and it got me wondering about costs & coverage.

    NROTC - Marine Option

    @DadFutureMarine Saw your post and wanted to share something with you... my son attended the Battles Won Academy the summer between his junior/senior year of high school and it was the best experience ever for him. I have another son who is USMC enlisted, but this one is definitely going the...

    New Student Indoctrination (Summer 2019)

    Too late now with NSI 2 starting today - but I'd all but guarantee anything brought for pain or soreness will be trashed. It was with Session 1.

    Provide that feedback to your unit. They're looking for take-aways.

    New Student Indoctrination (Summer 2019)

    I'm so sorry to hear you were DQ'd. :( I hope that you are on a path to healing from all that has occurred. I appreciate your sharing your experience as I've heard from another source that this was quite the unorganized chaotic scene this past week. Your sharing confirmed this as well. While...

    New Student Indoctrination (Summer 2019)

    Mine paid for a haircut the week before. I'm sure he was a tad shocked at the traditional boot camp haircut!

    New Student Indoctrination (Summer 2019)

    Might I add... be thankful it will only be three weeks and not 13 like USMC boot camp. ;)

    NSI Indoc-Day

    Thanks for the recap! I had hoped they would be able to keep their own running shoes... But I guess everyone in the same 'go fasters' was bound to happen. These next three weeks will go just as quickly as the live stream. Hang in there parents!

    New Student Indoctrination (Summer 2019)

    Just popping in to say a couple of us have started a FB group... cannot link here, but in case anyone wants to join to become part of this new, bigger family, search NRTOC Parents and answer questions to join. I was going to try starting a watch party from the group for swearing in, but not...

    NSI Indoc-Day

    Seems it will be streamed on Facebook - at least the swearing in, so maybe some Q&A will be covered too? We can hope for that as well. I'm not able to make either event.
