I have recently received a Type 7 Scholarship from AFROTC, my selected schools were Embry-Riddle in Daytona, Florida as well as Embry-Riddle in Prescott, Arizona. As I was offered a Type 7 Scholarship (Covering only Public Institutions), I am confused as Embry Riddle is considered a Private Institution. I am also capped at In-State Tuition and I am wondering how this all plays out. A Type 7 may also be converted to a 3 year Type 2 (I am still confused as the wording is not exact and the definition is loose). Much appreciation for any help out there!
>> Type 1: | Pays full (100 percent) college tuition and authorized fees at any public or private institution with an Air Force ROTC detachment. Type 1 selectees will also receive a monthly living expense stipend and an annual book stipend. |
>> Type 2: | Pays up to $18,000 per year in college tuition and authorized fees at any public or private institution with an Air Force ROTC detachment. Scholarship payment is further capped at $9,000 per semester or $6,000 per quarter. Type 2 selectees will also receive a monthly living expense stipend and an annual book stipend. |
>> Type 7: | Pays full (100 percent) college tuition and authorized fees (capped at the in-state tuition rate) at a public institution with an Air Force ROTC detachment. Type 7 selectees will also receive a monthly living expense stipend and an annual book stipend. Students offered a Type 7 scholarship will be given the option to convert their scholarship to a three-year Type 2 scholarship that can be used at out-of-state or private schools. A three-year Type 2 scholarship will start during the sophomore year of school. Note: AFROTC Scholarships do not cover room and board. |
