Presidential Scholarship -- Binding or not?

No worries. Alabama has rolling admissions; no early decision or early action. Neither admission nor scholarship is binding, and you have until the spring to make a decision. The only issue you might run into is if you want to make a housing deposit in order to insure yourself of a good time slot for choosing housing in the spring. That would require an enrollment deposit, which still doesn’t bind you to Bama but might be a bit tricky with the service academy requirements.
