This is the most successful topic I ever made on a forum, haha.

Wait, what? You mean the March 8 Board doesn't let you know on March 8??? to this reality!
However, I have it on good authority that if you check the online status 7 times per day for 21 days, while throwing salt over your LEFT shoulder, while hopping on one foot, and simultaneously shouting "I am not worthy!", the answer will appear on the 22nd day. I also have it on good authority that if you press the elevator button repeatedly, the car arrives faster.
I'm the exact opposite of this situation
DS has made his decision too..if he gets a scholarship great, but we are sending in the student loan paperwork anyway to his first pick. He received some academic scholarships that help but it won't be cheap. Either way his heart is to serve. We all are very fortunate that we have kids who choose to serve rather than party. We win and they will too in the end
These are the times that try men's souls. And us Mom's too. Yes waiting is my pastime this year. I used to have a life. I don't know what happened to it, but its gone. I sit on SAF learning more and more and where is the one this all pertains to? Baseball practice..with friends..having a great time being a Senior. And yes..I wouldn't change a thing. Except maybe the length of the WAIT
Oh, the things I have to look forward to in a couple of years, as I'm just getting my feet wet, learning from all of you about this process and how it works! Since DS already consumes my life as it is, the fact that I'll have no life waiting for scholarship decisions shouldn't be a big deal! There's part of me that's really getting ready for him to be able to drive!! In the meantime, I'm empathizing with all of you, reading about your DS's and DD's, and learning what it takes to get through this process! Good luck to all, and God Bless!
So does this mean that if you received a scholarship from the Jan. board you would already know? Last time I checked in with a Captain at my 1st choice school he said they still didn't have the results but would let me know when they did (Feb. 10). After the first board he did let me know that I had not received one . I really hate waiting, I've been board ready since July !
What's your opposite?
I have a feeling the March results will be released a lot quicker. No way they can afford to leave it until mid-late April and only offer one school. What they did at the last board is already causing chaos with transfers.
I can see a situation where a lot of 4-year scholarships get handed over to the PMS/ROO's this fall.
Does anyone know when the AROTC results from the March board will be available?
I received a 4 year AROTC scholarship first board but I have been waiting for a waiver for 4 or 5 months
