If you wait 6 months to take the PFT, you will not meet a board until @ January. That would be considered late for NROTC boards. The 1st one will meet in @ 2-3 months time frame.
As it has been stated competitive dets can fill up faster than non-competitive dets.
You will also need to have an interview for the ROTC scholarship. I would start on it now. Many kids will have their files done, ready for submission in two or three weeks, just waiting for the interview.
~~~~ Yes, you read it right. 2 or 3 weeks from now they will be complete, and ready to meet the 1st board in 6-9 weeks.
Six months from now to meet your 1st board can mean much more competition because scholarships will already be handed out for @ 3 months. There is a limited pot of money. The longer you wait, the less money in the pot.
Congrats on getting 85% off tuition from Nova. I am sure many people would love to be in your position right now.
