Found out today that the Board results for the NROTC Side Load Scholarship applications have been released. All applicants should hear very soon if they received a scholarship. Do not believe there were any reductions in scholarships this year, so that is a good thing for applicants. Good...

Just curious, does anyone have any info on when applications need to be approved and submitted by commands and when or if any "Board" meets and these scholarships are awarded ie: Fall only, or Winter and Fall? I keep hearing about these scholarships and am just curious. Thanks!

Our son came home for Spring Break and has not gone back. Thoughtfully, he brought his SA issued laptop home....just in case. Turns out, good idea, he now has all his classes online. The only problem we are having is his laptop will not connect to or even find our home printers (which are...

Hi, I am curious as to the percentages of ROTC Grads who Commission either in the Regular or Reserves in their chosen service? I ask because our one son applied for AROTC and was basically told "anyone who wanted it usually got Regular Army Commissions". Reading through these forums I am...

I am not sure if I missed this someplace, but I searched and found nothing and browsed the different threads and could not find anything, so here goes... DS has decided to re-apply this year, surprising us. Bottom line is he was found "Qualified" last cycle and his admissions reps this year...

Hope someone can give us some insight into this. DS applied for but was not accepted to USCGA, but is now fully committed to Plan B with academic scholarship. DS is going to re-apply to CGA for 2024, but is now interested in USNA and NROTC. The NROTC unit at Tulane is giving him the...

Our DS is entering the Class of 2023. Right now he has full banking at our Credit Union. Can we stick with this arrangement (his ATM Card works on the "Co-Op Network" that includes Navy Federal Credit Union, USAA Bank ATM's, and I am guessing PENFED ATM's. Do we need to open him an account at...

A quick question from anyone out here who is familiar with why a candidate could go from "Fully Medically Qualified for Ascension" to "Not Qualified/Remedial"? Nothing new has been submitted, and nothing with DS's status has changed. A waiver was initiated about a month ago, but was cleared by...

I have been looking and looking and maybe I am just looking in the wrong spots, but does anyone have an idea of the breakdown of numbers in what different categories appointments come form? I realize that there are probably something like nearly 600 appointments reserved for MOC's...

We live in Florida. Florida requires one Health and Wellness PE class for graduation. My DS took this classroom PE class in the first semester of his freshman year and has not taken any other "PE" classes. He is a letterman in three Varsity sports and his one Varsity Coach is a Certified PE...

I am just wondering....my DS is currently awaiting word regarding his DoDMERB remedial. He was told the new material would take a minimum of 30 days to process, maybe longer. If the remedial is not resolved or becomes a waiver issue after those 30 days, does the Academy issue LOA's to those...

Does anyone know how long a waiver for a knee issue that really is not an issue (the doc used the wrong buzzwords and triggered a DQ) is taking right now? The waiver was just requested early last week to USMA Waiver Authority. He does not have an LOA, but is considered highly qualified...

My DS is waiting for a Waiver that was submitted last week for a knee issue that really isn't a knee issue but the wrong buzzword by the doc triggered a DQ. He is hoping for USMA. does anyone have any ideas of the current waiver timeframe? He has a 4 yr ROTC Scholarship that is good to go (no...

My DS checked his AROTC Portal and it shows under the medical "no waiver needed". What does this mean? Is he medically cleared or is something else going on? Thanks

My DS applied to USMA and AROTC. He received a 4yr scholarship to AROTC and is considered to be a top candidate for USMA. He checked today to insure his Physical Fitness Results were posted but instead found "DISQUALIFIED" in big red letters on his portal. He called Dodmerb and spoke to his...
