DS has been awarded 4-year scholarships for NROTC and AFROTC. He wants to pursue aviation and is having a hard time deciding between the branches. He does need a waiver for a DQ. Within 1 week of being awarded the AFROTC scholarship, he was granted the waiver from AFROTC (his DQ and AMI info were already in the system from the SA application process). He has had no communication from NSTC. We understand the process is often not quick in regards to the waiver, but our understanding is he will need to decide on the NROTC scholarship by 5/1. If he doesn't have a waiver by 5/1, it seems very risky to me to accept that one and decline AFROTC which has already given him a waiver (i.e. he could accept NROTC and later find he cannot get a waiver and then has no ROTC scholarship at all). Is the NSTC waiver process typically long (i.e. is he likely to hear before 5/1)? Is there a contact DS could reach out to at NSTC to help in the process? Thanks.
