    Junior in high school applying AROTC Scholarship in June

    Best first steps are to reach out to the PMS and/or recruiting officer at Villanova to ask all of these questions. They will be happy to talk with you and are your best first contact. Both my sons did this early on at their desired schools and programs. There should be a website for the AROTC...

    2024 Summer Seminar

    Applicant portals for Class of 2028 opened, I think, in June. It's just an email for summer seminar.

    New FAFSA Rollout -- Disgusting Incompetence!

    To bring more optimism to the thread - the EFC from the email we received after it was filed was higher than what is now noted after it's been processed. . .a silver lining

    Army ROTC 2023-2024 3rd Board

    For the other boards, and in the past, moving from B/UC to Boarded and then back to B/UC typically means you were selected for a scholarship (for many, not everyone). But since this is the last board, I'm not sure if that holds true. Maybe checking the 3rd board thread from last year will shed...

    USNA Class of 2028 Waiting and Speculating

    In our state after you pass your hydration test, preseason, you cannot drop below a certain weight week to week. All of which is given to wrestlers in their 'weight plan.' Be safe, folks.

    New FAFSA Rollout -- Disgusting Incompetence!

    My son's showed as being processed last Monday. I did notice the site said corrections could be made later, but he didn't need to add any schools. Hopefully, it's done and being sent to schools.

    I can't stand this forum

    I think it's an excellent reminder, from a former applicant, we should be a bit more measured and accurate in whatever information is given here. Justsomecadet has some very honest, refreshing and extremely well written posts (thank you for the reminder to look at your post from a year ago; it's...

    Reasons to Go USNA……besides flying

    Interesting post, no doubt, from one person's perspective. My DS chose Navy from the get for many reasons, beyond flying, but not USNA. I don't think he ever considered being a pilot, but did consider the academy, and everything else the Navy offered. He will commission (fingers crossed) in less...

    What are LOAs based on?

    It's my impression it's a predetermined candidate score, which may or may not change from year to year, for the early LOAs for USMA. As posted in numerous other threads for this cycle USMA sent out emails about the possibility of obtaining an LOA after sending in test scores, transcript and...

    Loosing Hope 😔

    Definitely no authority either, but DS and his NROTC unit learned their service assignments in late September 2023 - isn't that before the academy mids?

    Army ROTC 2023-2024 2nd Board

    If your son has already won a scholarship he doesn't need to do another fitness assessment to compete for a scholarship. He will take a fitness assessment at his assigned unit at the start of the fall semester and must pass to retain the scholarship (contract as a cadet). After that and...

    AROTC Scholarship Thread - Class of 2028

    Yep, just copy, paste and add his info! Congratulations to y'all! My sons receiving their scholarships were some of the BEST days to date. The 2 most exciting days for me for my older son were the day he received his NROTC scholarship and the day he received his service assignment!

    ROTC at Princeton versus Duke

    Exactly what my son did, REA to Princeton and early action to UT-Austin and UNC Chapel Hill and was so fortunate to be accepted to all. He just has one pending RD application, but I have a feeling he'll probably decide before he has a decision there. And, yes, I think we read the early action...
