Hey guys! I'm 17 and will be a HS senior in the fall. I'm really considering going into the Navy for nursing (but I'm not counting the other branches out by any means.) Unfortunately my school year is already over, so my scholarship app will have to wait until August. In middle school I was diagnosed w/ exercised induced asthma and migraines. Neither of these stop me from doing any physical activity, but I know they are both PDQs. With two, is there a chance at getting waivers for both?
My other stats are:
-attending what is considered the best public HS in my state.
-GPA: 4.35 weighted (Roughly 3.85 or so unweighted)
-SAT: 2100 (750 W/740 CR/610 M)
-active in local theater, show choir, improvisational comedy
-active member of roller derby team
-Rank: 53/279 (18%)
-Volunteer experience at local library & elementary school (currently in process of being a Red Cross volunteer)
-Part-time job
-1st place award for a Civic's video game about bullying (through the Globaloria program), 1st place in several short film competitions (for which I served as Sound Operator/Assistant Director), Leadership Award for Music (given out by my school).
-Dad is a veteran of the Army National Guard
So, basically I'm just wondering if I have a shot at the NROTC scholarship for nursing, and what schools I would be competitive for which offer the scholarship. My current favorites would be U of Minnesota or University of Pennsylvania.
