He started as a Bio major and changed the first week of classes to Comp Science. He was going back and forth right up until classes started. You should reach out to Dr. Wade Bell in the biology department. He was so helpful and straight forward. I don't think my son has to do any languages, but...

I have a son who is a current rat at VMI. Happy to answer any questions you might have.

How was NSI?

Ours is at NSI 2 as well. The general parents page is on Facebook as NROTC MIDN PARENTS. His college also has a parents page.

Gary Sinse performed for the recruits at Great Lakes Naval Base last night. If you search for his page on facebook you can see some video from it. Regardless if our DS and DD were there, makes me love Gary Sinise even more and it was really nice to see.

My DS never talked with a recruiter. He only met or talked with the local Academy reps and our closest NROTC / AROTC ROOs. He applied to all the Academies and ROTC scholarships. He was waitlisted for a couple Academies and received a AROTC and NROTC scholarship. He went NROTC (starting this...

He doesn't play - he is a swimmer. I spent 20yrs in the music business and did marching band - percussion through school. Really looking forward to hearing the bands at VMI.

Nice, my son is there at the second session.

Ah yea, thankfully we had that completed with the SA applications. It is very interesting how the different branches are all slightly different in their application processes, dates, requirements, PFAs, etc. Requires applicants to become very organized. Really a great exercise in project...

Great thank you and congrats!!

Anything you wish you would have known or asked about early on in the process? Anything financially we should be prepared for? Did the book allowance and stipend cover most of their expenses?

Just starting a thread for anyone who may be in the VMI 2024+3 class! DS will be doing NROTC and will be on the swim team. We are looking forward to meeting everyone in August!

Same session for our DS. He is attending VMI.

My DS attended last year (his Junior year) it helps with SA and ROTC scholarship applications. He had a good time and got an intro into marching, room inspections, and military types of things. The American Legion has some scholarships that might be of interest that can be applied for before...

That is great @Rnormoyle!! What a great way to see his efforts immediately pay off. Love it!! Congrats!!

Same for my DS. Multiple emails and phone calls.
