I received a 3 year NROTC sideload scholarship this year but was DQed from dodmerb. It has been a while and am waiting on a waiver notification but I was wondering if it is too late to sign the contract for the sideload since it has been a while since being awarded the scholarship. I am confident in being waived but I know that for the National scholarship you have to sign the contract within a certain amount of time and I was wondering if the sideload process is the same and I would have to reapply for a 2year scholarship when I am medically cleared.
