[quote=Anonymous]Yes, my service academy graduate (now an Officer in grad school) was salutatorian of her class, merit Semifinalist, three sport varsity player and team captain, had over 500 hours of community service, and a genuinely kind person. She is healthy and was able to get through DODMERBS without any issue, though there is an appeal process that many of her classmates went through to gain admission. I have a rising senior in college who recieved a full ride Army Reserve scholarship and a rising freshman who recieved full ride Navy ROTC scholarship. These 4-5 year scholarships are very competitive. They all receive monthly stipends while in college and my son who chose the Army Reserve Option also receives pay for his monthly drills and summer training. They are all three choosing engineering paths. Our fourth is still in high school and would like to apply to a service academy, we’ll see how that goes, he is currently in the top five of his class.[/quote]
