Hello, I am a candidate applying out of a community college and am not as academically qualified for USMA (class of 2017) my GPA, from a college stand point, is a 3.51 with an SAT of 550 CR, 470 MTH, 500 W. I excelled beyond the maximum requirements on my PT test and am medically qualified. I am currently interning as a TA for Biology and also have wayyyy more leadership experiance besides that. I have TONS of community service too. My diversity admissions officer told me that I may have a shot at USMAPS but I am not feeling to comfortable right now because there may be A LOT of enlisted soldiers comming in this year. I know that advice from forums aren't 100% accurate but I still need some insight. Also I need some advice when it comes to ROTC at VT. I am planning on joining the corps if my two attempts at USMA fail, however I fear that commissioning will be a lot more difficult for me through ROTC because I am comming in as a transfer (I didnt get full leadership training for my first two years plus an additional semester because I was at a community college)
