My son was just offered this scholarship yesterday following first round of board reviews. While he is very appreciative of the offer, he is likely going to decline in hopes of being offered a 3 or 4 year scholarship during one of the later boards. At the end of the day, he would love to serve as an Army Officer and be Active Duty. Are we just holding onto false hope? He was labeled a “strong applicant” by his # 1 choice school. He is waiting to see if he is accepted there. We felt he had pretty strong stats / application, which is why he submitted for the first board (1370 SAT, 3.92 unweighted GPA, leadership / extra curricular’s/ work, etc…). Thank you in advance for any insight anyone can offer!
