    Best Self-Prep School/Route for USNA

    Hello, I am looking to earn admission to USNA (as well as USAFA and USMMA as secondary options) for c/o 2029 after my Turn Downs this cycle.

    Northwestern Prep without Scholarship

    Hello, I am considering attending Northwestern Prep next semester. I was rejected from both USAFA and USNA this cycle and was not offered a FFS or a USNA foundation scholarship. My ALO/BGO's insist that I was a highly qualified candidate but simply did not make the cut. The $14k cost of the 6...

    Community College ROTC route?

    If I were to participate in NROTC at my local community college for a year or two, which is a crosstown with UCLA, would I have to transfer to UCLA after CC to continue my NROTC route OR could I continue it with a different school/different unit? Also, if I were to transfer to UCLA, does being...

    How difficult is it to be selected for Field Training/Advanced Standing?

    Navy ROTC will most likely be the route I will take to commission. If you get good grades, are in good standing in your unit, and crush the PFT, are you highly likely to be selected for a spot to commission?

    Navy Crypto Through ROTC

    Hello all. I am planning on commissioning through ROTC and am trying to decide between Navy and Air Force. I am highly interested in Cyber/Cryptologic Warfare.

    NROTC or AFROTC Comparison Questions

    Hello. I am trying to figure out a little bit more about some specific details that differ between AFROTC and NROTC. I have not yet gotten a decision on either my AF nor Navy scholarships yet, but I am aware that I might not earn either. In the case that I do not earn either, which ROTC branch...

    Starting to lose hope, but I know I shouldn't yet.

    It is April now, and my portal still has no information on any admission decision. I believe I am pretty well qualified and have a chance but it is been so long without hearing a thing and I'm starting to think that I didn't make the cut. Thing is, I know three other candidates in my...

    NROTC Portal asking me to start an application for 2025?

    Today I logged into my NROTC application portal and instead of showing me my application status for 2024, it asks me to start a new application, which I presume is for 2025. I would imagine this means I was rejected a scholarship for this year, but there is no confirmation of that anywhere. Can...

    Notified of Nomination Through Portal. Glitch?

    Today, I looked at my USNA portal to see the 'Nomination' item on the checklist marked as received, with a date and time of today listed. Although it says received on the checklist, the top right corner of the 'Progress' page details "No Nominations Received". I have not been contacted by my...

    Concerns about ALO Interview

    I had my ALO interview done just a few days ago, but I am concerned about how it went. The interview only lasted about 25 minutes. I was not asked nearly as many questions as I anticipated and I feel as though I didn't get to say everything I wanted to say. My ALO actually did seem impressed...
