Congratulations, where are you going to school? MO? my hopes of NSI got shot down when they said SMC students don’t get to go. Out of the 4 kids that got nrotc scholarships only 1 went to NSI

I’m coming from Eastern NC, so roughly the same climate. I’ve been here 5 years and still not acclimated when it comes summer time. Gonna try my best this year. thanks!

Correct me if im wrong, but CSI is the Citadel Success Institute that takes place at the Citadel and is more college credit oriented. Also costs a little money.

That is true. He said the time would be better used training for whats to come at The Citadel. Still looking forward to it.

Hello all, Today I got an email from my MOI saying that NSI is not a requirement for cadets that will be attending SMCs this fall. I was really looking forward to going, am I still able to go regardless?

Hopefully I can provide some helpful insight. This year, I received the MO NROTC scholarship. My small school of 340 students actually got a total of 3 Marine Option and 1 Navy Scholarship. My school, year after year, has produced multiple scholarship recipients as well as service academy...

Congrats! Is your DS going? Was he awarded a scholarship? I finally decided yesterday to use my scholarship for The Citadel. I chose it over VT, A&M, and NC State... I hope I made the right choice, it came down to VT or the Citadel after some thinking.

Yes, that’s what I meant, sorry. On my acceptance letter, those were the stats shown. I applied EA.

Pain. Well, I hope things may be different now. I don’t know how long ago you were at the Citadel though so who knows. I try not to think about it much but in the end im committed to my career over anything.

What do you mean by within 25 miles? Like, a knob cannot drive more than 25 miles away from the campus?

When did you apply? Virginia Tech was extremely selective this year, with about a 15.9% acceptance rate. I wonder if a later application put you at a disadvantage. I don’t see why you shouldn’t have been admitted, honestly. I hope everything falls through and the waitlist is just a temporary thing.

Ah gotcha, that makes more sense. Another thing, who gets to have cars? I would assume knobs are not allowed to drive or have cars. Which ROTC are you part of? I apologize if you already said that and I just missed it. As always, I appreciate everyone’s replies in this thread. All very...

I didn’t see your response at first, your inside view is very helpful. Thank you! So if I understood it right, mostly every weekend, knobs get a 4hr leave period from 5:30-9:30pm on Fri/Sat and a 2 hour leave period on Sundays? Thanks again for your insight and I do look forward to being...

I was hoping I’d see a response from you! Thank you for giving me some insight. And thank you @glen as well for your help. Both responses are very appreciated. EEBTTF, could you elaborate more on “leave has been granted more often”? Do you get to see your DS more than normal? Are you in SC or...

Hello all, this is my first post on here after lurking for over 3 years. I am a current high school senior that will be graduating this June and my current plan is to attend the Citadel on a NROTC-MO scholarship. I haven’t finalized anything yet, though. I would like some insight on how...
