In tech school and just got it as my first unit. How is it? What can i expect in my day to day as a new defender

I had a 3.4 high school gpa and 1300 sat and that is about it, no extracurriculars in high school and no college (aside from ccaf credits from bmt and tech school) should I even bother going through the process of putting a package together. I saw a stat online from one year saying 493 applied, 351 promoted to candidate, and only 65 made it to either prep or direct. Any advice helps!

Question is in the title, is it a competitive scholarship with the award just being a requirement, or do you get it so long as you have the award, thank you

Question is in the title, how long does it take for a fresh out of tech school defender to escape the gate/flightline

Im planning on attending AFROTC this fall but Im still not sure of a major. I wanted to do engineering but it honestly seems very intimidating especially coming from a very easy high school. I fear if I pick something in engineering I might fall behind and my GPA would take a hit. A CMLA scholarship after FT would help a lot but idk if picking a tech major would improve those odds or not. I also want to go rated if that helps. I also don’t want to pick a major that I would regret if something were to happen between now and commissioning. Maybe something tech but not as hard as engineering may do me some well but I’m still not sure. Any advice would be very much appreciated

(Sorry if this post was all over the place I was just writing down what came to mind)

Hey im an oos student incoming freshman thats gonna go to ms state and do rotc. Ms state offers in state tution to oos cadets. First semester payment is due before rotc orientation, which is about 2 weeks after the due date so the waiver cant be processed til then. Can i somehow get an extension/deferment on my payment u tik that waiver goes through?

Hello, I was wondering if an incoming freshman has an oos student gets in-state tution rates, wouldI be eligible for the “Feshman Mississippi Resident Academic Scholarship Package”? I was accepted and received an amount in scholarships for my oos status. I am planning on going into ROTC when i arrive do that will grant me that waiver. Will i be reconsidered for any possible scholarships because I doubt mine will be kept? Because I know you are not eligible for the oos one because your billed in-state, but your not technically a Mississippi resident. Anything helps, thanks!

Edit: sorry this post was all over the place but you get the jist
