What if you receive a 4 year scholarship to a school you don't want to attend?

My top three choices are VMI, Vtech and UVA. I can't get into UVA so a scholarship there would do me no good, so I hope I get one for for VMI. I really hope to hear back soon, all the waiting is driving me crazy haha. I check my status at least 10 times a day. Well since I got that last screen up and I'm in my third month, hopefully I'll hear back soon. Oh and btw, when you got the good news, was it from checking online or someone calling you or a letter in the mail? And did you just get informed you got a scholarship or did you know to what school it was for?
Yea when my scholarhsip status was still pending I checked it often. But hey, my advice to you is just chill, its senior year. I originally found out by checking online and then the officer recruiter in Richmond called the same day. Your school assignment is listed when you receive notice.
something to consider
It'll come eventually... think about calling your regional director (if that's the title? Mine was a Chief) and he told me what was holding up on my scholarship was that Villanova was full already and were looking into getting me there... unfortuneately, that didn't happen and was very shortly given afterwards the scholarship to Penn State... which in the end, I guess I'm glad did happen, if it was awarded to Villanova, it would have made my decision to do USNAF vs. NROTC that much harder as much as I really enjoyed Penn State.
Good luck all.

They said no but told me that if i didnt want to go to UCLA, to go to USD and do the college program and after a semester if i did well they would award the scholarship to USD..which is exactly what i did and i am now awaiting jet training in meridian!!
