Hi,
Just like many people I am trying to become a pilot in the Navy, and I have a few questions. I am going to attend Embry Riddle this fall for my sophomore year. I am hoping to pick up a two year scholarship through the NROTC at Embry Riddle, but they told me when I accept the scholarship I have to go into the Navy no matter what. I have no problem with this, but many people are telling me that if I do not get some sort of a guarantee in my contract that will let me be a pilot than more than likely will not get it. Before hearing this I was just planning on going to Embry Riddle, getting a scholarship and work my a** off and hopefully get selected for trainer to become a pilot. Honestly, I did not think you could get a guarantee to become a pilot in the Navy. I would appreciate anyone that could tell me if there was some sort of guarantee or even if the path I am going is a good one for become a pilot.
Also, I currently have a 3.9 GPA in an Aeronautical Science Major. Is this competitive enough to get a Navy 2 year scholarship or even a pilot spot after graduation?
