FQNS and ROTC:

Just to answer the question from an earlier thread.

My brother was not selected to attend West Point off of the waiting list. He got his rejection letter two weeks ago. He was called this evening from ROTC out of Fort Monroe. He was just offered a 4 year ROTC scholarship to a school of his choice. He will receive a letter from ROTC within two weeks and he has 30 days to let them know his decision. So, if your are FQNS(full qualified for West Point and not selected), you are offered a 4-year ROTC scholarship to a school of your choice. Fort Monroe told him that 100 people are offered scholarships in this manner every year. My brother had not applied for a ROTC scholarship separately. So, it is true.
