Any parents interested in a closed FB group for our incoming 2023 class of NROTC students? I'd find that useful and will start if others would also find beneficial.
If yes, send me a personal message here and I'll start one. Include your email address so I can send an invite.
DS received the NROTC National Scholarship and I know he will get reimbursed for the uniform fee. He is attending Norwich which is a Corps of Cadet SMA. Will he be refunded the full costs of the uniform fee (roughly $2300) or just the portion of Navy uniforms he receives? TIA
I know that all scholarships are handled by a board at NSTC, headed by Admiral Bernacchi, but how are contracts (commissions without the tuition) handled? I've heard some say that the same board decides those as well, or that the board sees the number of applicants each year and issues the...
Hi, so I’m a second time applicant for USNA and have accepted a full NROTC scholarship for the 2019-2020 academic year. If I were to receive an appointment at USNA, will I have to repay my NROTC scholarship for the year I used it?

Hi, right now I am a senior in high school, and unfortunately I wasn't chosen to receive either the nrotc or afrotc 4 year scholarship, but I still want to do one of them in college. At this point I am still on the fence about which branch to choose, they both appeal to me for different reasons...

Hi all
For my 18th birthday I am considering getting a small US Flag tattoo on my ribcage. I checked current Marine and NROTC policies and the tattoo is in regs. Does anyone know if I need to notify NROTC about tattoos that are within regulations? My OSO doesn’t seem to check his email and I’m...
Would I be competitive for an NROTC Scholarship? I have a 34 ACT, 35 Superscore, 3.8 UW GPA, and I was varsity swim (FR, SOPH, JR), and water polo (JR). However, my leadership positions and Service opportunities are less than stellar. I've held a job but it was during the summer, and I'm also...
Hi,
I plan on doing ROTC and really have my heart set on fighters, so I'm wondering if NROTC is a better choice to ensure a fighter slot because of the limited number of heavies the navy has? My understanding after talking with a family friend was that doing AFROTC will increase my chances of...
