I know a lot of people who weren't chosen for a scholarship. The Citadel is where I will be next year. The ROTC units on campus offer 2 and 3 year scholarships. They are basically the same as the ROTC scholarships except you have to apply when you get on campus. I know a Navy Lt who applied and didn't get a scholarship. However, when he got on campus (The Citadel), he took out loans to pay for the first year, and got a campus-based scholarship for the next 3 years. The Citadel also offers several scholarships for upperclassman. Financial aid is also available through the federal government. You can get a pell grant that covers about $5,500 per year and low-interest loans are available that your ds doesn't have to pay till after he/she graduate. Low-interest loans are also available for parents through the federal government. Good luck!
