So to make this as short as possible. I am (or was) a 4th-year non-scholarship cadet. After the first semester of my senior year, Fall 2017 (with 2 semesters left to graduate Fall 2018).
I decided that I no longer wanted to pursue a commission. Without getting too personal, over my time spent in college, I have grown a big social media following around my passion and I've built a multi 6 figure business around it. So basically, I left because after I graduate I want the freedom to pursue my dreams and do what I love. As I'm already successful at it.
I told my commander a few months ago and we did the disenrollment investigation. Today I just got word back from HQ that I am required to serve a 2-year active duty enlistment instead of paying back my stipend debts ($6k).
Not only was I shocked but a bit angry too as prior cadets who have left 1-2 years ago while being in POC where granted free will. Paying NOTHING back nor enlisting.
With that being said, I have one chance to appeal this decision. I read my disenrollment report and it didn't state any reason as to why I wanted to leave. Just that I wanted to leave.
If anybody has any advice or tips for writing my appeal please let me know..
