My school is weird because its project based learning instead of traditional learning so everything is different. I couldn't take AP's but I took all honors, 5 college classes (the max), 4.3 GPA (the max, we also don't rank), no SAT/ACT. I'm a founding class member so I was able to take...

Nope. But I got waitlisted at Harvard and Princeton! I’m going to commit to Vanderbilt :) They have a great NROTC program and Nashville is supposed to be amazing.

I also got into Vanderbilt with my NROTC scholarship placed at another schoo! When are you planning to visit?

Correct, I find out if I get into Yale tomorrow!

I had an application with similarities to yours and was awarded a 4-year scholarship. #1 school choice Yale (I also got deferred but didn't find out until after my board, I interviewed with Yale NROTC commanding officer), with the rest of my school choices being high cost/competitive schools; my...

I got a physical in August 2021 and was 5'8 3"4 without shoes, so that's what I self reported on the DODmerb website. I got my DODmerb exam in February, and even though I said I could take off my shoes, the nurse said to keep them on when she measured me. She wrote me down as 5'8 so I guess she...

Thanks for your insight, it's really helpful! And she did indeed ask if I applied to any ROTC's or service academies and why Yale NROTC specifically, I'm assuming for the reasons you stated above.

Thank you!!

They said it was another opportunity for the admissions team to capture who I am and what I'll contribute to Yale. Interview is scheduled for tomorrow, I really don't know what more I can tell them (first Yale interview went for 45 minutes, NROTC interview for 1.5 hours), but I'm excited regardless!

All my schools are getting back to me in late March/early April. Only two more months left of the waiting game!

I applied to Yale University as a Restrictive Early Action applicant and had an interview with an alumni. I also interviewed with their NROTC commanding officer as part of my NROTC scholarship application, as Yale was listed as my top choice school and their CO said he interviews anyone who...

Congrats!

High school senior

I received an email at 6:25 AM (PT) today notifying me that I had been selected for the National NROTC scholarship! I immediately knew I had to make an account just so I could say thank you. Thank you to everyone on here who asked and answered questions, gave advice, and overall put their time...
