Has anyone who received their WINNER notifications received their packets in the mail yet?
~Checking the mail excitedly every day!
On the application it says to wait to respond to the offer until you get the letter. Can we just print the winner letter posted in the file upload to accept the scholarship?

DS has not yet received the packet in the mail either. But I printed the letter and "Notification of Intent to Utilize ROTC Scholarship" form from his portal on the AROTC application website, had DS sign it and e-mailed it to CC this morning (since we have a snow day, trying to get some paperwork done). This is DS's Plan B. Also checked DoDMERB this morning and he is qualified for AROTC as of yesterday, so there really isn't any reason for him to wait until 2/26/14.
So, we're confused. DS has heard from one of his schools, referencing the scholarship win, but not the other. When we read the letter at the scholarship site, it says that the scholarship must be accepted by 2/23. How does he go about accepting it? Is there an "accept" button on the scholarship website?
How do I get DoDMerb qualified for my AROTC scholarship? How do I set up an appointment?
Did you print off or look at the 2nd page of the Winner letter in the portal (on the AROTC application website)? Page 2 is the "Notification of Intent to Utilize ROTC Scholarship" form that needs to be signed, and the school needs to be checked to accept.
Mail, fax or e-mail the completed form per the instructions at the bottom of the form.

I haven't received my letter yet or an upload! Iv only been contacted by one of my schools congratulating me....
I would contact the PMS/ROO at the school that called you and let them know that you do not have a winner letter in your portal. Maybe they can find out why. Seems strange that nothing has been uploaded for you, as it has for others, if you have in fact been awarded a scholarship.
I would also mail a hard copy at some point as well as fax if you can. Make sure they receive it!
My letter isn't uploaded yet
