US Army ROTC Cadet interview questions

PT test, college grades, military performance, persona appearance and more are taken into account. You interview with senior officers who must approve of your application to their program. After that, your file is sent to Human Resources Command, HRC, and determinations are made. This is your introduction to the Army if you have not served as an enlisted Soldier. All decisions are ultimately made by HRC based on the needs of the Army.

My college roomate recruited me, and received a recruitment fee of $100. After receiving the fee, he quit ROTC. He took me to the local ROTC unit at another college. They interviewed me, then asked me to take a physical assessment test. At that time, it was a shuttle run, a basketball throw, pull-ups, and sit-ups. I did 47 pull-ups and the head instructor called the Professor of Military Science immediately told me he would award me his "hip pocket" scholarship, which required no further approval.
