<p>My whole life I've wanted to be a nurse in the Air Force. My father served and my grandfather served as a pilot in the Air Force. I'm applying for the Air Force ROTC high school scholarship program and have heard it's very competitive. I have fairly decent grades, a 3.8 unweighted GPA, and a 4.4 weighted GPA. By the time I graduate (2014) I will have taken 6 AP classes not to mention I have 12 college credit hours I received through dual enrollment. My SAT scores are not that great but I have the opportunity to boost those up. I have 150+ community service hours and also a lot of recommendation letters. Outside of school I am in National Honor Society and I've played varsity softball since my sophomore year. Physically wise I'm in pretty good shape for a girl. I run 3.8 miles everyday in about 30 minutes which paces around 8 minute miles. I can do 50 push-ups in a minutes length and attain practically no body fat. I think I have a good chance at getting the AFROTC scholarship even if it's the type 7 scholarship. My question is, because I plan to major in nursing and it is a non technical major, do I still have a good shot at this scholarship. I plan to go to a four year accredited university in- state. If I did get the type 7 scholarship how much would this cover on top of my Florida prepaid college fund and my 75% bright futures scholarship (I plan on retaking my SATs and ACTs to qualify for the 100% bright futures scholarship). Last but not least does my chance at getting this scholarship degrade because I'm a female or boost?</p>
