My son will be in AF JROTC next year and plans/wants to stay in ROTC throughout college as well. His college of choice has Army ROTC, but he wants to join either AF or Navy once he has his bachelors. Is there any reason why that would not be possible?

Thinking of taking a gap year to save some money, travel, help with family responsibilities etc. before college. Will I lose my ROTC scholarship or will they be receptive to this and be able to defer my ROTC enrollment by one year?

I’m a college reapplicant and was wondering if I would be qualified to receive a LOA/LOE if my SSK is fully submitted in August, with the parts I can complete (so not college transcript or activities), but I’d still be missing a few SOEs because of college. Meaning my candidate statements, HS...
