I have received a type 1 AFROTC scholarship, and I have been accepted into the college I would like to attend with AFROTC. I also have received a merit scholarship which can be used towards room and board. I have also been qualified through DODMERB. I would love to take this route as it lines up well with my goals for college and a career, and the only thing I would choose over it is #1 Coast Guard Academy, or #2 Air Force Academy.
I would like to go ahead and accept the scholarship, however I am not sure if I would be able to back out if I were to receive an academy slot and / or if doing so would be harmful to AFROTC.
1) I have heard that the scholarship is binding asides from a service academy acceptance, can anyone point me to official documents / websites where this is stated? I don't want to accept the scholarship without certainty that this is true.
2) Does this apply to academies from different branches? Essentially, If I receive an appointment to the Coast Guard Academy would I be able to change to that later on?
I appreciate your help and insight!
