Congrats to all hearing about their NROTC scholarships!! Any idea on when results of the AROTC first board will start showing up?

DS found out he was awarded a NROTC Scholarship to his first choice school today, as well!

The board meets starting October 20th, so I would guess the results won't be out until some time in November.
I understood first board was the 3rd for Army ROTC. Another week or two is probably the right answer.
Congratulations to all that received positive news.
Patience (easy to say, hard to practice) for all of you still waiting. If you want this bad enough you will get there.
For those that got "good news" check in on past posts by folks like Kinnem, Pima and Bruno. Bama and PMS Kirkland too. These are go to people that have been through this 'rodeo' before. Read through what they advise folks like yourself on getting the word. They will all urge you to 'run through the tape'
They will also urge you to enjoy your good tidings BUT gear up for DoDMERB (many hit the screen - some of which could be avoided)
And finally - enjoy this time in your life.
I rushed through high school to get to VMI (right? who does that?)
In retrospect I wished I had slowed down & spent more time with my Family and savored being a Senior.
Once you step on this escalator called NROTC your school years will loom; summer cruises will beckon; and before you know it you'll be out in the Fleet as an Aviator, or in Surface, Subs, Buds, or any number of vital positions as a newly minted Ensign.
Thank you, each one of you, for stepping forward at this time in our Country's history. Dark Clouds loom on the horizon while we dip into one of our silly cutback cycles. You stepped forward when so many are stepping back.
You truly are the best and brightest!
So many of us, here on this forum, are proud of you and wish you all the best.
Fair Winds and Following Seas!
