<p>Hi, I had a few questions about whether or not I'd be a competitive applicant for an army ROTC full (4 year) scholarship.</p>
<p>First of all, would I have a harder time getting a scholarship at a "better" school (i.e. Cornell vs UDelaware)?</p>
<p>Second, am I academically competitive enough?
SAT: 1520
GPA: 96/100
Class Rank: will be top 10 in a class of ~400</p>
<p>Finally, how well must I do on the physical test to be considered competitive? (this area is my biggest concern)</p>
<p>Thank you all in advance for taking the time to help me out!</p>
<p>That SAT is not competitive.</p>
<p>Is that SAT 1520/2400?</p>
<p>@"Erin’s Dad" @Madison85 that is my 2 part SAT score (1520/1600) my 3 part score it 2250 (770CR, 750M, 730W)
Sorry for the miscommunication, but I was under the impression that the writing score was not considered.</p>
<p>@eharr34; Thanks for clarifying that! - Excellent score!</p>
<p>You do need to do well on the physical fitness test to be competitive. In fact, it is equally important to academics. </p>
<p>Not sure about Army, but for Navy ROTC, it does not matter which colleges you prefer. A NROTC scholarship is just dependent on your personal scores. In fact, it is not rare for the Navy to give a scholarship to somebody but then that person is not accepted to the school which the Navy assigned them to – not good! </p>
<p>For Army ROTC, last thing that I heard they want a list of 7 colleges that you are willing to attend. So, I recommend having only one or two “elite” level schools, with the rest being good matches including one safety (i.e. University of Delaware).</p>
<p>@NROTCgrad alright thanks man</p>
