Post history for @Scoot27 indicates he's in 9th grade.

Congratulations! Is she still on AD? Here's the original thread... amazing journey for many.

Yes. As you know it will be at your own expense. Make sure the credits will transfer to your university and when you fill out your 104R (class list plan for graduation by semester) that you have eight semesters of classes to graduate. Some schools include the transfer grades in your GPA...

Lot's of variables. For consideration... BOLC TDY enroute to first duty station or PCS to BOLC? Active duty or Reserve/NG? Contracted hotel or not? Could be weeks before 1st paycheck let alone BAH if authorized. Consider the career starter loan to get through the transition. Every BOLC...

The least expensive option for rotc school events is to use the ASU issued by the unit until just prior to commissioning. Cobble something together from what they have. The cadet uniform is different than the officer uniform so be cautious about purchasing a cadet uniform then having to...

The transition to Active Duty or even a civilian first job is expensive. The interest rate on that loan is about 2.99% for ROTC, and first payment can be deferred until 6 months after commissioning. He doesn't have to take out the full amount. The rate and payment terms are better than him...

He will be paid an initial clothing allowance when he gets to Active Duty in a status other than training. It's generally a one time payment for officers unless they have a job that requires 'special' uniforms. Did he consider taking a career starter loan from USAA or Navy Federal? It's these...

OP's post reflects that NROTC is not an option based on career choices.

When commissioning into the Reserves or NG from AROTC there is a process to 'branch' based on selection (interview and get Letter of Acceptance) for an opening with a NG or Reserve unit. https://armyrotc.army.mil/usar-arng/ The Reserve recruiting officer or Recruiting Ops Officer (ROO) at her...

Ours too went with the medical guidance of their dentist and oral surgeon to not remove at age 18 when entering a commissioning pipeline. Six years later on active duty the military dentist gave a referral for the Oral Surgeon to remove them. Every case is unique. No issues with the procedure...

IME - you might want to visit the Host School to meet the cadre even if you intend to enroll in a cross town school. Cadre at the Host School were able to coordinate with a cross town cadet for an overnight on campus visit to understand the logistics of travel for Class, Lab, and PT.

Reach out to UCLA or Cal State Northridge AROTC cadre. (310) 825-7381 The host school is UCLA with classes, Lab, and PT also offered at Cal State Northridge. They will know. You might have to commute to UCLA or Northridge for MS classes, Lab and PT. You would probably enroll for the ROTC...

Army may not be '...holding all the cards' in this particular instance . OP's son is an MS1, freshman, so he is not yet obligated. He can keep the Army scholarship through this academic year with no obligation. He currently has no Army service obligation or commitment and could notify them...

Yes by 3/9 unless the scholarship you won was an ECP/minuteman scholarship. Not sure how you are waiting on a 4yr scholarship if you already were given a 3yr... a 4yr would be an upgrade rather than a 'new' scholarship

@SpongeBob Make sure you have plans B and C in place. ... Options you can afford without the scholarship and options that are not UT Austin or UMich you can attend with the AROTC scholarship. You might surprise yourself and show up at a plan B or C school and 'fit right in' academically...

Be cautious in identifying the AFROTC scholarship as a full ride. Not all schools provide R&B for AFROTC scholarship recipients. More importantly I've seen many threads and posts about AFROTC scholarship students cut from AFROTC programs after their second year. A review occurs near the end...

It's just how some US High Schools manage their varsity sports. My children's HS was similar. If being on the roster, or playing in a single game/event, is the only qualifying factor it misrepresents their level of participation.

I immediately went to the bottom of the attachment to search for the findings of the case. I got distracted by the list of Coast Guard Academy marriages with redacted personal information. Some text from the list ... Wow. Just Wow. "xxxx July 3- July June 1963 Dec.1962 1st: Jul C+ xxxxxx...

Agree that the VA Nurse to CRNA or civilian training is likely the best option for the OP based on their stated constraints.... However, the Army does have a civilian nurse to CRNA program via Baylor. It's a small number per year and competitive but it exists, at least on paper.... It's...
