Hope someone can give us some insight into this. DS applied for but was not accepted to USCGA, but is now fully committed to Plan B with academic scholarship. DS is going to re-apply to CGA for 2024, but is now interested in USNA and NROTC. The NROTC unit at Tulane is giving him the opportunity to College Program (I believe this is the correct terminology) while he applies to USNA and USCGA. They said if he gets his app in before May 9th they will send him to Great Lakes in July for INDOC. If he opts to forgo INDOC will this affect his entry into NROTC? He does not need an NROTC scholarship, but wants to possibly Commission as an Ensign in the Navy in his major. We were told beginning the first term of his Junior Year he will need to contract, and NROTC does not offer a commission in his major unless he attends USNA. Can he Commission as a SWO and keep his major once he finishes his first sea tour? And what is the commitment to the Navy if he is not a scholarship Commissioned Ensign?
