My DS would be going into his Junior year at Norwich under a Type 3 AFROTC scholarship, and with the additional generous scholarships from Norwich, my out of pocket this year would only be $2500. Trouble is, he has now decided he does not want to go thru with the AF and has filed to dis-enroll without consulting me, three days before his report date. I have rallied friends, his old Scout leaders and family to try and change his mind, but so far have been unable to dissuade him. He has already been awarded scholarships for the 2020 year and is an above average student, so grades are not the issue. He is having anxiety issues he cannot shake, and wants to take time off to "get his head" together. We have already set an appointment with a mental counselor to address his anxiety.
My question is, how will this affect his AFROTC scholarship and/or Norwich scholarship? Would he be able to take a deferment for a semester? What are the repercussions from the AF for dropping out?
Any advise/input would be appreciated.
