I know that no one really knows the exact answer except the board members themselves, but I just want to get an insight on the statistics of people receive the scholarship (like a guess). How hard is it to get the scholarship? I submitted my applications back in October, and I think my...
Hello y'all,
I'm applying for the NROTC scholarship, and I'm worried about the focus of my essays. Writing is usually a strong point of mine, but I'm not sure that I'm addressing the questions in the way they should be addressed. I'll include examples of what I mean, but my general question is...
Hello all,
I was working on my NROTC essays and came across a question asking what warfarin community I want to join and why. Does this question (pasted at the bottom of this post) have any bearing on selection? Do they try to balance community numbers? Do I have to join that community? The...

Hello SA forums, just wanted to get some informed opinions on some things and my current situation. I would like to attend the Naval Academy, but I am nowhere near a competitive applicant. The next best thing is NROTC. In the area I live in, there is only one school (School A) that has NROTC...

I am applying to the Naval Academy, Airforce Academy, Coast Guard Academy, and Merchant Marine Academy. However, I recently was awarded a scholarship that pays full tuition at Notre Dame valued at $240,000 ($60,000 a year in tuition). At this point, I have guaranteed admission to Notre Dame with...
Currently in the process of looking into schools and their NROTC programs. I've got a (hopefully) simple question here that may sound silly, but I wish to make sure that I don't get trapped in anything if that makes sense.
Can I apply to a school's ROTC program even if I haven't enrolled in the...
The advice I see most on these forums from current/past ROTC members is to select a major that you have a passion for, because selecting a technical major that you have no interest in just to fluff up your application will lead to burnout in college. I have no interest in studying any Tier 1 or...

Hey everyone, I have a couple of questions about the NROTC scholarship dates. I submitted my application in early December and haven't heard anything back. My portal says everything is processed so I'm guessing it's just a waiting game now.
Does anyone know when the board dates are and how...
