So things in the packet that addressed some things I misunderstood from posts here. For some reason I thought the descusion on CIET was saying all those starting AROTC contracted or not were to attend that training but following is under
INELIGIBILITY:
2016 ROTC Cadet Initial Entry Training (CIET). Winners who attend the 2016
ROTC CIET forfeit their eligibility for an Army ROTC 4-year scholarship. If you are
contacted about the 2016 ROTC CIET, ensure that the officer who contacts you is
advised that you have been selected for a 4-year scholarship or 3-year advanced
designee scholarship. (Not applicable to 2 year MJC Winners
It also gave a NLT 15 Dec 2016 date to pass APFT for 4 year and July 1 2017 for 3yr. Although 3yr are not 'required' to pass till after MSI as I showed DS the PMS also still has to recommend your 3 year start so better to show up at minimum in the 80s for each area and work to improve that first year so the PMS is going to want to recommend him.
