Ola! Vticcae,
Along the same lines,, Im considering likely for the Virginia tech and signing up for the Corps of Cadets and hopefully becoming into the ROTC programme.
But im in a little bit of a pickle.. Im NOT a US citizen, in no way ever lived in the states previously, rarely been there or everything. But i severely want to be a part of the Air Force and come to be an officer in intelligence or change into a pilot.
So i herd that the ROTC has a civilian and navy monitor. Can i do the military track, and get a scholarship, provided that i turned into a naturalised citizen by my 4th (or fifth) 12 months of finding out? So just imagine i would have been at VT finding out for four several years can i get my citizenship then? My regimen is to graduate and be commisioned as a 2nd lieutenant in the Air Froce
Point is i Have that scholarship to fork out for the tution.. dont have more than enough money, other than the fact that i want to devote the total four many years in the ROTC.
Any aid would be appreciated, by the way if you’ve got herd of Adnan Barqawi who went to VT and turned a citizen at the close of his diploma you’d have an approach of what im talking about!
BTW great blogpost
You need to contact the Corps of Cadets.
