Do you need to get selected by a congressman of your county
Fine
Hello! I am currently in the process of applying for the Army ROTC scholarship. Do you mind relaying me the link to the application?
Do i still have a chance even if i dont play any school sport? I participated sport outside of school for over 10 years
I'm in the same boat. I am by no means an expert on ROTC and what they're looking for, but my brother did it and I can go off his experience. So from what I've gathered they really like to see a varsity sport in high school and that's ideal, but 10+ years of a sport outside school looks good and shows a level of dedication. The only problem is they know a varsity sport is hard and shows dedication/leadership, but they don't have that assurance with an outside sport. Your best bet is to make sure you're meeting the physical requirements and are an active member of a group(s). Good luck, you got this!
@@cpine9062 woah! Thank you so much!! This was very helpful!!
@@esther9112 Absolutely
@@cpine9062do I still have a chance even though I have a 3.4 GpA weighted however I’m a 3 season athlete and have been varsity since freshmen year in all my sports?
Thank you, that was really helpful
Young lady, way to go with this video. I am sharing it with a young lady who has the same wants as you and has the same forward thinking as you. You are looking to the future and standing tall. Thank you and God bless you.
Hi Ma'am... Can I apply there even I'm still in Senior High School here in My country? Cause I'm thinking to join the us navy.
Hello! Yes you certainly can! US Citizenship is required though. Best of luck!
most helpful video on this I've seen. Will recommend to anyone that wants information on NROTC.
Man, as a Junior this is extremely stressful and I'm beginning to wonder if I'm even cut out for this stuff. I had a terrible Freshman year academically which was 100% self-inflicted, and then a better, but still bad Sophomore year as I was going through a lot of hardship outside of school. I've totally flipped the script so far this year hitting all As for the first time since middle school, but it really hurts that no matter how well I do from here forth, it may not make a difference because my GPA can only recover so much in three semesters.
If your GPA is not the best, but you still qualify for the scholarship, you can address that in your essays and spin that to your advantage. The navy loves to hear about how someone perseveres and overcomes challenges! Especially if you show a good ACT/SAT and extracurriculars. You got this!
@@sarahkaitlyn1221 this is actually my case. What would you recommend as extra-cirriculars?
exactly the position i’m into going in as a junior ☹️
@@morpheus9274 Join athletic teams, engage in leadership roles in clubs, participate in community service, consider a Junior ROTC program, and develop strong academic performance. Be sure to maintain physical fitness.
did you manage to get in?
Are you still in the program? If so what AS are you? I am heading to Field Training this summer.
I am! Good luck at training!
@@sarahkaitlyn1221 Thanks! Just realized you're in NROTC, not AFROTC. Nonetheless, good luck to you too!
Hey, my gpa Is 4.4 do I meet the requirement?
Bruh 😂 u can do anything with your gpa. I have a 3.4😭
@@DaveedNation bro that’s a good gpa keep up the good work
@@talmizrahi7470 I need to step it up bc rotc likes to see I think 4.0 and a 30act. I’m a soph so I haven’t taken it but yea
@@DaveedNation his GPA is weighted, and your GPA that you wrote is unweighted. That's the difference.
What if you’re already in the Marine Corps reserves, can you still apply?
If you are enlisted Marine Corps you can see if you qualify for the MECEP program. Your command should have info about this but you can also find it on the Marine Corp webpage.
thank you for this, i’m a junior right now and i’ve been starting to think more and more about ROTC and this helped.
Same!
Same
How’s it going for y’all
this video was amazing thanks so much!
And to make it clear, I can apple for different rotc branches if I want, right?
Hello! Yes. You can apply to Navy, Army, AND Air Force!
@@sarahkaitlyn1221 ok thanks, I’m applying right now, and I don’t know if it’s too late for me if I’m starting college in Fall 2021. Do you think i can still make it?
If you can get it in before the deadline you definitely still have a chance! Earlier is better but it’s still possible to get selected for sure!
@@sarahkaitlyn1221 I think I’m in the second board meet since the next deadline is in January
My NROTC deadline is in 2 months and I’m so nervous because I haven’t taken my SAT yet for it
Hello! I would get that done as soon as possible! Talk to your coordinator to see if there is a possible waiver due to Covid. But worst case scenario, you can always pay for the first year, but do the “college program” option and then pick up a three year scholarship if needed.
@@sarahkaitlyn1221 I tried talking to the recruiter about the NROTC, and he’s telling me it’s difficult as of now. And he recommended me to enlist in reserves and then reapply for the NROTC and college. I think he’s trying to recruit me, which is not what I’m going for.
@@electrowolf6260 yes he is probably trying to recruit you. Separate from a recruiter will be a “coordinator” who is specifically knowledgeable on NROTC. This link should help you locate them: www.netc.navy.mil/Commands/Naval-Service-Training-Command/NROTC/Locate-Coordinator/
Which branch did you end up doing? I have a few questions especially if it’s nrotc nurse option
@@survivalmodemom5210 currently I didn’t get any of the ROTC scholarships, but luckily I have a different scholarship to cover the college for my first year and re-apply next year for the sideloads. To be honest I don’t know about the nurse options, but if anything else I can answer
You’ve got the same name as my mom that’s wild
My SAT got canceled 4 times because of COVID. I am taking it next friday. However, I do not know what to do to continue my application process if it needs my SAT results. I do not know if i will get my results back before the Deadline for one of my top schools application. How should i go on my doing this?
Hi Katie! Wow. COVID is a real wrench in this process. I would recommend going ahead and applying for the school with or without the SAT. Schools usually have an application question/contact person that you can email and explain the situation and they may have more specific information or advise for you. If every other aspect of your application is solid, I would assume they would be understanding of Covid limitations and waive the requirement (especially because I’m sure you’re not the only one facing this issue). Worst case: if you can’t get into your top school because of the SAT score not coming back in time, you can accept your ROTC scholarship for a different school and then transfer. It adds an extra step, but trust me, I know a lot of students who have done this. If you’re having trouble submitting the ROTC scholarship application without the SAT, I think you have until December 31st to get your scholarship application in, so your SAT scores should be available in time. I would go ahead and get your whole application together so all you need to do is plug in those scores and submit. If you still don’t have your scores by December 1st I would reach out to your areas scholarship coordinator (that’s what the navy has not sure of other branches) and communicate this issue with them. If you don’t already have a relationship with the scholarship coordinator (or equivalent) I highly recommend it! They are an awesome resource! Please let me know if you have more questions!
@@sarahkaitlyn1221 WOW YOURE AWESOME! Thank you so much! :)
I e-mailed the AFROTC officer and was told that both SAT/ACT are both still mandated.
Do you think an act score of 27 with a gpa of 3.8 would be okay for a type 7?
Luis Lifts 3.8 is great. I would aim to get that ACT in the 30s for atleast one category. Also keep in mind since the processing of your application is lengthy, you can always submit your package with your current score so the process can start and then send in updated better test scores a few weeks later (that’s what I did)!
thank you for this
when can you apply? Can you apply in high school or just in college
Parker Hughes you can apply in the fall of your senior year of high school! And in your freshman year of college!
sarah kaitlyn also how is your college life and social life with ROTC. I’m just worried about not being able to have a normal college experience
Parker Hughes correction: the SPRING of your senior year of high school you can apply. And you can totally have a normal college experience! You do have early morning PT and you will wear your uniform one to two times a week, but the program is designed to still allow you to be a college student. Most of my friends aren’t in ROTC. And many of my ROTC friends enjoy going out on the weekends, being apart of non-rotc sports, and doing extra clubs. It’s doable! But remember (if you are an ROTC student) ROTC pays the bills, so if you have conflicts they need to come first. 😊👍
sarah kaitlyn thank you so much<3
