I agree with goalie regarding placing another IS on the list.
As an example, VT on a whole rarely ever takes off the waitlist for applicants. I would assume if the college isn't taking off the list, that ROTC would be filled up also.
Many IS students that want an SMC life will apply to VT, and although your stats appear to be on par for admission, they may have many more higher caliber applicants applying for the scholarship. Remember VA, especially NoVA is filled with a lot of military dependents. VT was our DDs number 1 choice (not in ROTC). Her stats were a tad higher, (29 ACT, 4.17 cgpa, AICE Cambridge program, all honors or AP classes, magna cum laude. She applied for ED, and was placed into RD decision pool.
I would look into GMU or maybe VCU. I believe JMU also has AROTC (not sure). I know ODU does, and that would def. be a safety for admissions purposes with your stats. Your stats are on the higher ranger for acceptance at the other colleges, in college application terms, are a strong match.
You stated Dad was stationed in OK when you were born. Every state has different levels to prove residency. You may want to check into it. For example, until Bullet retired in 08 we were AK residents. Lived there from 95 to 98. No longer owned a home there, owned a home in NC and VA. However, because his driver's license, voting and bank account was still in AK they considered him a resident. Ironically, because we owned a home in NC, and I had my license in NC, plus a banking account, and Bullet was military, our kids were allowed to be residents there too for college admissions purposes.
One of our friends DS went to Ohio State. He never lived a day of his life in the state. His parents were stationed in CO, where they owned a home. OSU, considered him IS because his Mom kept her residency in OH.
It is a little loophole that works for many kids, even if their parents reside in another state. Talk to your folks, and investigate to see if you can be an OK resident.
I would also look at the sticky here (on top of the ROTC page) to see if there are any schools that you like that would classify you as IS. I.E TAMU, offers to ROTC candidates IS rates. Not because of ROTC per se, but at an SMC you cannot be in ROTC without being in the Corp. If you are in the Corps, they will give a $1000 scholarship, and that scholarship triggers you into paying the IS rates.
Some other colleges do the same, some just give reduced costs for ROTC scholarship recipients, some give to all ROTC cadets.
Finally, the Officer Wives Civilian Clubs in No VA offer scholarships every yr. They meet in March. It is a one time only scholarship, and each club has different limits, it can range from 250 to 2500. Ask your GC if they know about this. If they don't ask them to investigate. There is one that is at Ft. Meade (Greater Washington Club). You don't have to be an AD military dependent to apply.
I also agree with ED. As a Mom of an O line FB player, I wouldn't risk waiting for the end of the season. Our DS got a severe concussion as a sr. 2 weeks off the field, and no practices. He was lucky. Another play while he wasn't playing got hit, and broke his leg.
I know our DS's school starts practicing in July, and they allowed them to miss 3 days of practice over the summer. I would talk to your FB coach and ask him to miss one day, because you will be too tired to get a good PT score after 8 hrs in the sun. Than ask him if he will administer it after he is done with practices. He is allowed to give it for you because he is a coach.
Just food for thought as you start this journey...it is a marathon. It is best to be prepared for 9 months of a rollercoaster ride.
