AROTC Board #1 Scholarship Winners

[WD1]

Someone told me that the majority (if not all) first board scholarships go to engineering and nursing, then the second board opens up to more majors. Just wondering if that is the case.

My intended major is banking and finance, so maybe I was one of the lucky non-engineering/nursing winners or maybe that information is not true.

Do you have an appointment to USMA, or anticipating one? No matter what, never give up the fight!

No worries. USMA is more whole person evaluation and nomination. Still in play. I see high test scores and high GPA’s coming out of this first board. Unless the rest of the boards have so many candidate’s with all high test scores and GPA’s then you are still in play.

Thank you so much. I was hoping for some optimism
