I got it- a 4-year Naval ROTC scholarship!

[DSL1990]

I was just notified tonight that i was awarded a 4-yr Naval ROTC scholarship!

I want to thank all of you who helped me and gave me guidance. One of my first posts on this forum was about how a female should prepare for an officer interviews for the NROTC 4-yr scholarship:

So many of you jumped right in and offered me a ton of advice on how to conduct myself in the interview and what to questions to prepare myself with, and as a result, I had a fabulous interview that blew away the LCDR that interviewed me and blew me away too, since until the moment of the interview, I felt for sure I might blow it! And now that great result has had it's own result.

Thank you all SO MUCH!!!

I want to give special thanks to those who immediately stepped up to give a worried highschooler their time and their advice.

Oh I'm sorry wink! You definitely gave me advice too!!!!

I was just thanking those who advised me on the interview preparations!

My list of EVERYONE to thank on here is probably 10 times as long!

My name is at the end of the alphabet.

I don't know which unit I'm assigned to. I guess I'll find out in the next few days. But VMI had been my first choice on my application. Whereever I'm assigned, I assume I can apply for a change if necessary, but I'm not too worried about that. All of my top 5 schools are great!

 

[schwarti]

You're more than welcome - I can't remember how I helped, but I'll take it anyway Best of luck to you and hopefully we'll both make it out there someday!

Congrats and good luck in college. We'll see you out in the Fleet.

That's awesome DSL! Congrats, and I look forward to joining you in the fleet (hopefully it won't take me 4 years to get into/through OCS!).
