Also may want to consider an ROTC Scholarship
UF has Navy, Army, Marine Corps, and Air Force Scholarships to give out.

The physical demands of the Air Force is pretty darn easy as well by the way.

^ I honestly do not know. Not sure how it all works, and just wanted to spread awareness that the program is available to potential UF-hopefulls.

Sorry I can not be of assistance.
