scholarship

Hello there! I’m going into my senior year of high school and I want to pursue either a West Point Appointment, A Naval Academy Appointment, or an Army ROTC scholarship during the upcoming months. I’d like some advice on where I can boost my chances of getting an appointment and/or a...

It's common knowledge that AFROTC scholarships are usually awarded to people taking "technical majors" (https://www.afrotc.com/scholarships/desired-majors/). I assume this means Big Blue has a shortage of people with those degrees, but what I'd like to know is this: if somebody is looking to...

I'm currently in my freshman year of college and I'm transferring down to the big school this spring in order to finish out my Bachelors. I wan't to become a fighter pilot for the Air Force. I was thinking of joining ROTC at the big school cause the small affiliate school I attend doesn't offer...

Our DS was awarded a 3-year national scholarship last year. Unfortunately, the college he chose was not a good fit (no academic or disciplinary issues), so he has moved on to another (yes, much more expensive) school that is in a different Brigade. I understand that all the paperwork to move...

Hi all, I'm a junior in high school, prepping to apply for an AFROTC scholarship (opens in June). But I will be living in Mexico by then (long story short: U.S. State Dept. reasons, and yes, it will happen). Anyone know how that changes things at all? As in, for the interview, or application...

I got offered a 4 year type 7 scholarship for a technical major. When I completed the application through Holm center, I had my major preferences as General Studies (because Kinesiology my desired major was not available in the drop down list), Computer Science, and Aerospace Engineering...

Hey all. I wanted to get some insight on the options that my brother has. Any thoughts would help. He is an Army ROTC nursing scholarship recipient. He is currently finishing his second semester of his freshman year up. A couple of days ago when he came home (due to quarantine) he told the...

Hello everyone, I’m extremely considering the Air Force ROTC program and I’m wondering if any of you could give me a little insight to see if I’m even worth considering for a Air Force ROTC scholarship. Below I’ve listed my achievements and anything I deemed fitting to list: ECs: 4.26 GPA...

Hi everyone, I am currently an Army NG SMP cadet and junior in college and will be applying to graduate programs for clinical psychology this summer into fall 2020. A big factor of where I end up will be based on the funding I receive for the program. How does tuition assistance work for...

My daughter is a 4-year national scholarship winner. Due to the budget delays, she did not start receiving her stipend until January. It is nearly then end of February and the army has not paid her tuition for the first or second semester yet. Apparently, this is also the case for all of the...

I have been reading through several forums and see that some will not be awarded until February 1st but have also seen that many people have been awarded scholarships since this past Thursday. I was boarded on the first board but did not receive an offer from it. I am a Varsity Football player...

Greetings, This is my first time posting here so I'm not sure the proper protocol per se, but I've been a browser for months trying to find answers to all of my questions. I finally have a stumper. I was offered admittance and full 4 year scholarship in the ECP, or early commissioning program...

Hi Everyone, I am an SMP CDT in the Army NG, and am receiving the minuteman scholarship for 2 years. I have only gone to ROTC Basic Camp, and not BCT or AIT. Am I eligible to receive the GI Bill kicker? Thank You.

Ok, so the first review board didn't give me an offer and told me to wait till the next review board to receive an offer. I'm concerned this means I'm not going to get any offers at all which would really suck cause I've already been accepted to my dream school (Which is VMI). I wouldn't be able...

Hi all, I was looking at which majors the Air Force considers "technical" (and thus, priority will be given to them as far as AFROTC high school scholarships go). I noticed that there are honestly not many degrees it has listed, in my opinion. My question is, given these majors...

Hi, As many of you know, lots of engineering majors require you to complete a civilian internship as part of the course. My question is, can I do both AFROTC (possibly on scholarship) and an internship in my junior year of college? (For example, a degree in Manufacturing Engineering requires a...

I serve as a Civilian Aide to the Secretary of the Army (CASA) and one of the coolest parts of the volunteer role is that I get to an allotment of Minuteman scholarships. These scholarships are similar to the 4- and 3-year national scholarships except they require a commission in the Guard or...
