    Department of Defense ID?

    I'm currently filling out my information for the Army ROTC Program at The Citadel. One of the forms is asking for a DOD ID number. I have no recollection of ever being assigned one.

    Citadel Scholarship Program 23-24

    Hi all, I just had a few clarifying questions about The Citadel’s scholarship process, for the Scholars, Honors, 1842 etc. Are these scholarships awarded on an early/regular board, similar to ROTC scholarships? Or are all applications submitted and results announced in the spring? I’ve read...

    Introduction

    Hello, I am committed to The Citadel for the class of 2027. I was accepted to The Citadel and VMI but I chose the Citadel for multiple reasons including location and speaking to a few alumni. I am also registered for CSI. My dream is to be a officer in the Marines as a helicopter pilot, but...

    How much sleep does an average SMC cadet get?

    Specifically VMI and Citadel, but I'm also curious about the other four too. Also, does your sleep schedule change over the weekends or summer training?

    Hey yall, I'm a current senior looking to major in psychology and commission into the Marines, and I have several questions on how to decide between the two. I've been browsing the forums, but most of the posts I've run into are for AROTC commissions which don't really help me that much. As...

    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...

    Why do so many Marines graduate from the Citadel?

    Exactly as the title says. What makes the Citadel, compared to the other SMAs or ROTC programs, so appealing to Marine prospects? If you're a Marine officer who graduated from the Citadel, did you notice a large amount of your peers (who weren't in any Marine-specific classes) also going into...

I will be in in the Indiana guard soon, and I plan on attending a local school for my freshman year, after which I plan to apply for the USMA. But if this doesn't work out, I'm interested to know, is it possible for me to transfer to...

    VMI vs Citadel

    I was recently accepted into both schools an am having a bit of trouble deciding between the two. Both schools have some big and little advantages over the other. I contacted both ROOs and both said I was competitive for a 3 year AROTC scholarship. My Father said that he is willing to give me...

    On campus AFROTC scholarships

    After reading the material online I have a pretty good handle on the national Air Force ROTC scholarship process, but haven’t found much information about on campus Air Force ROTC scholarships. How are these selections made and how difficult are they to come by? All else being equal (gpa...
