Was just turned down for an NROTC scholarship and had greag stats very similar to candidates being awarded scholarships, im very confused and upset.
ahaase14, I am sorry it didn't work out like you had hoped.
But a military officer has to face unplanned adversity and make the best of it. They have to be able to separate themselves from the emotion and make good, sound, logical decisions.
So, after a brief period of depression, frustration, anger, whatever - its time to get after it!!!
When one way is blocked... find another.
When a door closes... kick it in.
When one person tell you NO... find another to ask.
I know it may not seem like it now, but there ARE other paths to a commissioning.
