    Appointments by state?

    I understand that appointments will continue from now until May 1, but is there any order to when appointments are released based on state? I have just noticed on the appointment thread that certain states seem to have a good number of appointments while others, quite noticeably, have very few...

    Confused about 3Q letter

    I have two questions regarding receipt of a 3Q letter. First, does receipt of the 3Q letter definitively indicate that the candidate has not won their slate? Also, is there any advantage or disadvantage as to when the 3Q letter is received? If you are 3Qd with a nom earlier in the process...

    Moral Delimma and when to Give up Scholarship AROTC v NROTC

    My DS received 4 year scholarships for both AROTC and NROTC. He thinks his first choice would still be an appointment to West Point (which he has not received but he is 3Qd with a nom) and he thinks he prefers the Army branch in general to Navy. As it stands, if he does not get an appointment...

    USMA Overnight Visit / LOE

    A while back, my DS received what we thought was an LOE from his FFR. It was an email which just congratulated him on his nomination and encouraged him to finish up his application if he had not already done so (which he had). There was no specific mention of an invite for an overnight and I...

    When should you transfer your ROTC scholarship?

As such, his first choice is an appointment to WP (he is currently 3Q'd with a nomination) but his backup plan is to attend college on an ROTC scholarship. He has currently accepted both...

    Competitive vs Principal Nomination

    For USMA and USNA would my DS's portal show whether it is a competitive or a principal nomination or would that only be spelled out in a letter from the MOC? DS received word from USMA via email that he got the nomination and then when he checked his portal it was there (checked off and showing...

    NROTC Scholarship Packet

    My son learned that he received a scholarship about a week and a half ago through his portal. It said he would be receiving a packet in the mail with all the details. We have not yet received the packet. Normally I would not be concerned but a few days after receiving the NROTC scholarship he...

    Is having an ROTC scholarship a hook?

    My son received an AROTC scholarship with his choice of four of the schools he had listed. One of these schools is Notre Dame which is highly competitive. He would like to choose Notre Dame, but he is concerned that it may be the biggest reach school of his options. My question is if he reaches...

    CFA

    Once you have submitted your CFA, how do you know if you have passed or qualified? My son submitted his CFA and videos and everything is checked off on his portal but I am unclear as to whether this means he is qualified for the fitness portion of his application.

    My son had his DoDMERB exams a few weeks ago and was verbally told there were no issues but he has yet to see the information processed on his portal for USMA or USNA. Does anyone know how long that generally takes?

    Navy ROTC First Board

    When does the first board for Navy ROTC meet? Also my son received an email that said his application was "competitive" but not exactly sure what that means. The message said this does not mean you have won a scholarship but that you will be notified if you do win. I wondered if this is...
