OH my goodness! I cannot believe it, but we just found out that my DS got into his #1 school choice on appeal! He was not accepted initially, but he *was* blessed with an NROTC 4-year scholarship to USC at the end of April. Working with the NROTC folks on campus, he was able to submit a letter of appeal to admissions *after* the appeal deadline -- and they accepted him!
DS was *also* blessed with a Type 7 AFROTC scholarship -- and the plan was to do AFROTC at the University of Wisconsin at Madison -- which is ALSO an excellent choice! Now he has a tough choice to make. A nice problem to have for sure! We happen to be headed out to Southern Cal on vacation soon -- maybe this was fortuitous timing?
Big thanks to those in this forum that encouraged us to work with the NROTC unit and admissions to see if they would change their mind. It was certainly worth the effort! Now for DS to make the pros and cons list and finalize his decision within the next two weeks!
