AROTC Scholarship After Board

ROO called and told me that I had an an AROTC 3 Year AD award offer. I didn't know that was possible before I got on to campus. I applied for the national scholarship this year but didn't get anything. You can imagine I was pretty excited. How common is this?
Congrats! Well done. When did you hear? I heard from my ROO in May that I was high on their OML for a 3-year AD and am waiting to hear

Congrats on your selection. That 3 year AD award is very nice especially since you were probably bummed at not getting anything through the National Scholarship route.

Make sure you stay in shape and healthy. Study hard.

Take advantage on this wonderful, and rare, opportunity you got. 👍

When applying for the national scholarship what were your stats?
 
Army MI officers are encouraged and often times forced to be in the infantry, armor or field artillery for the first 3 years of their carrers to ensure they understand maneuvering prior to becoming battalion S2s/intel officers. Few MI officers are “snooping around” as we have the reconnaissance scouts to do that. Army MI officers analyze and process the data to turn it into intelligence that commanders use to make decisions. And they process security clearances for their battalions and inspect arms rooms as physical security officers.
 
Had the same thing happen to me, applied for national scholarship but didn't get anything for the 3 boards, then got a 3 year AD offer. My ROO told me that he had a limited amount to hand out so I assume there was some sort of competition between cadets.

Wrong thread. Sorry
 
The 3AD scholarship is precisely how my DS commissioned. (Current active duty Armor officer)

You typically are offered this only if you show your cadre promise and effort.

Well done!
