<p>Summers-
After 9th Grade: Lived on a military base in the Sinai Peninsula for one month, 6 miles from the Gaza strip. Fighting was still going on then so should make for an interesting essay topic if I can fit it in.</p>
<p>After 10th Grade: Went to an Aviation Camp at University of North Dakota. Also moved from New York to North Carolina.</p>
<p>After 11th Grade: Currently working as a bagger in a local grocery store, will keep this job for the remainder of the summer. </p>
<p>Good recs.</p>
<p>Looking to do ROTC and major in History (with aspirations of becoming an Army infantry officer) at one of the following schools:</p>
<p>University of North Carolina Chapel Hill (In State)
Syracuse University (Mom is an alumn and sister currently attends)
University of Connecticut
University of South Carolina
Boston University
Elon University
UNC Charlotte
Penn State University</p>
<p>I would appreciate any advice as to my chances with all of these schools, as well as my chances of winning an Army ROTC scholarship. If it helps I am an Army brat of a career officer (does ROTC factor that in?). </p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
