bucklehead101 29 Posted March 5, 2009 Good news. I was accepted to the University of Portland! Its a pretty expensive school too, luckily, I received an Army ROTC scholarship for history that covers 100% tuition, and since I'm on scholarship, the school pays for 100% room and board. I applied to a bunch of state schools in WA (my home state) but nothing from them yet. Go figure. I can get word from an out of state private college, but not from 3 different in-state schools! I applied for an Air Force scholarship as well, but was deferred to the next board, and eventually was presented a scholarship as well, unfortunately, it was a type 7, which wouldn't make a dent into the tuition costs. The whole scholarship process with the Air Force was painful. I'd send an email, and get something back 3 weeks later, telling me that they cant answer it right now because of many applicants and a too few workers, but they'll get to me as soon as possible. The Army on the other hand was superb. I would get an email back the same day, even though I live in Korea! Ill keep you guys informed on everything and don't worry, I'm not gonna give up flight simming, its too much fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
