Hi, I am a rising high school senior and I am in the process of applying for an Army ROTC scholarship. I'm hoping that I can get some clarification on a couple topics.
1. Do the universities I list on my application affect whether or not I receive a (4-year) scholarship? I am applying to and plan on listing schools that are more difficult to get in to than most, with Vanderbilt currently being my #1 choice. I heard that the more difficult the school is, the more difficult it is to receive an ROTC scholarship, is this true?
2. Does the major I list on my application affect whether or not I receive a (4-year) scholarship? Although I am not decided on a major yet, economics and political science are the current majors I am considering. Would it increase my chances of receiving a scholarship to instead go with a STEM major that interests me, such as industrial engineering or statistics? I know with Navy or Air Force it definitely would, but I haven't been able to find anything for Army.
Thank you so much for your time.
