<p>I'm currently a Freshman in college (yes, I know that's early to be thinking about transferring) attending Brigham Young University - Provo. I'm applying to the College of Arts and Sciences (undeclared), but I'd like to know my chances of acceptance for the Winter 2015 semester. My high school GPA was a 3.5 (3.7 if you don't count my HORRENDOUS 2nd Semester Senior Grades), I got a 32 on the ACT, and I've been heavily involved from an extracurricular perspective. I participated in "Rock Club," for two years, as well as InterACT (the community service club at my school). I played football for three years, ran track for two, and swam competitively for one. I practiced and became adept at Mixed Martial Arts during high school and became an assistant instructor during my junior and senior years. I'm an Eagle Scout, I had a lead role in the high school play my senior year, and I also served on student council as a senior. During the summer of 2013, I went on a community service trip to Belize for three weeks, in which I helped build a computer lab for a local school. I'm currently enrolled in Military Science 121 w/Lab, Calculus 112, Physical Science 100 w/Lab, Principles of Accounting 200, and Persuasive Writing 312. I'm also enrolled in the Army ROTC program at BYU, which I'm hoping will give me some experience in the ROTC field.</p>
<p>Where does the Army ROTC scholarship fit into these plans?</p>
<p>I’ve wanted to be in the military since I was a little kid, and the ROTC program has always appealed to me, so I figured my interest in Santa Clara’s ROTC program would give me a unique personality trait that would strengthen my chances of admission. The ROTC scholarship is important, because the school is very expensive, but my main concern is admission in the first place.</p>
<p>Sorry, not sure why this posted twice.</p>
<p>Your chances of transferring to SCU are high.</p>
<p>Your chances of getting an ROTC scholarship to SCU are almost non-existent until after you actually arrive at SCU. It sounds like you do not currently have an ROTC scholarship, but even if you do the Army does not let you just move it from one college to another. If you do not have an ROTC scholarship, you can only get one at whatever college you are already at unless you are transferring from an Community College to a four-year college (and that would be a two year ROTC scholarship).</p>
<p>If you are serious about this, email the Executive Officer of the ROTC program at Santa Clara. He or she can tell you everything you need to know.</p>

<p>Thanks for the information. I have spoken to officers at the SCU ROTC program, and they told me about the scholarship policies, so yes, I do know that I won’t qualify for a scholarship until I actually have enrolled at the school. I appreciate the input on my chances for admission.</p>
