I'm new here and trying to help my daughter navigate the nrotc application. We have two questions, so far.
1. MIT and Tufts are on her list of schools to apply to, but it appears since they are affiliated she can only select one of those schools in her 5 choices. Clearly admission to either school is difficult, but her chance of admittance to MIT is much less likely. MIT is higher up on her college list.
Should she select MIT in her top 5. Then if she doesn't get in, but receives the scholarship, will it be possible to transfer the scholarship to tufts, provided she is accepted there (which is not a given either)? I apologize for all the hypotheticals above.
2. There is a requirement on the application to select a state school. Does that mean any state school, or an instate school? I have looked through the threads and there is a difference of opinion. We live in ny and only SUNY Martime has nrotc. She has no interest in this school. Can she put a different state school, Michigan/Georgia tech, as the state school? What do people without an instate option (CT) do for this requirement?
Thanks for any and all guidance.
