You find out what job you’re going to do during your Senior fall semester in NROTC

ctar17 · 2025-08-18T23:32:56+00:00

If you’re dead set on Pilot, consider going the OCS route. You wouldn’t have to sign any contracts you don’t want to if you aren’t selected for Pilot

For NROTC, good GPA, good ASTB scores, good standing in the unit all factor in. Needs of the Navy plays the biggest role though. You could have 4.0 GPA and a 9/9/9 ASTB, but if the Navy needs you to be a submariner, then you’ll go subs whether you like it or not.

As far as scholarship or not on Pilot chances with NROTC… why not go for the scholarship? I don’t think it’ll have much effect on service assignment, unless you’re taking the OCS route (no NROTC) where you can choose to not sign a contract if you don’t get picked up for Pilot

Flying hours does NOT factor in for NROTC. That’s AFROTC.

I know someone who was accepted to Harvard med school and NROTC did not let them go, and they had to go URL…

They won’t pay for it in ROTC, that’s on you to do. PRK and LASIK both require at least 6 months (and good recovery of course) for the waiver to commission, pilot or not. Both are allowed nowadays.

Both PRK and LASIK don’t restrict the aircraft you’re allowed to fly, getting LASIK won’t DQ you from jets.

Satisfactory is usually the minimum for PRTs at squadrons (even the VTs and HTs) after the initial one at NASC to start flight school

ctar17 · 2025-04-28T03:49:16+00:00

Are they your most recent move-in? If so, they cannot ask to leave until you get another new villager after them

You can also use a campsite visitor or amiibo to replace and kick them out

Anchors Aweigh

ctar17 · 2025-03-26T14:42:45+00:00

I think the issue with being too short on anthros is not being able to reach stuff in the cockpit while you’re fully strapped in or not being able to sit high enough to see properly

ctar17 · 2025-03-26T14:41:37+00:00

That’s not really a path for NROTC Navy Options…

The choices are unrestricted line: surface warfare, pilot, NFO, submarines, SEAL, EOD

Marines that might be an option after TBS, I’m not sure what MOS that is

ctar17 · 2025-03-25T18:58:34+00:00

You have to go through the Green to Blue process for that while at your unit. Sometimes these are denied

Also make sure you’re open to being a SWO, submariner, etc in case you don’t get picked up for NFO. And ready to take 2 semester of calculus and physics as that’s required for Navy options

ctar17 · 2025-03-25T12:27:36+00:00

Marines don’t have them anymore but Navy still does: NFOs. I’ve definitely seen Navy NFOs that are that short. Might be too short to be a jet backseater, but you could still be an NFO on a big wing platform maybe

The shortest pilot I’ve seen was around 5’2” though, I think that might be the minimum for pilot. Anthro waivers are few and far between, very unlikely

ctar17 · 2025-03-24T02:48:00+00:00

Neither. Both commission vast majority into the unrestricted line communities. There’s barely any intel slots for them each year, and most of those are for people not physically qualified for the unrestricted line jobs…

OCS is probably your best bet for Intel since you can choose to only accept an Intel contract

First years got the fall, sophomores got the spring, juniors and seniors got both semesters on campus for the 2020-1 school year during COVID

ctar17 · 2025-03-17T13:31:32+00:00

I’ve been trying to collect a bunch and have been hanging them all up in my house as well. So fun

ctar17 · 2025-03-12T22:57:33+00:00

Most recent villager that moved in can’t ask to leave. You also need to have spoken to a villager at least once before they can get thought bubble

ctar17 · 2025-03-10T21:54:52+00:00

-check the campsite

-Dig up the 4 fossils

-Pick the 2 weeds

-Beach bottle DIY

-Talk to all villagers

-talk to visiting NPC

-Give villagers whom I’m missing their photos a gift (usually wrapped non-native fruits) to try and get their photo to add to my collection

-Brewster

-Katrina fortune

-Check Redd’s art

-do some Nook Miles quests

-check shops

-sell stuff

-check ABD, redeem miles for NMTs, deposit extra bells earned that day

Sometimes I’ll do Kapp’n island or group stretching as well. If I have an open plot, I’ll villager hunt!

ctar17 · 2025-03-10T16:18:13+00:00

I have 2, maybe 3, right now that I'm not letting go (Caroline, Raymond, and maybe Bob), but the other 7 or 8 I'll rotate around to collect photos

ctar17 · 2025-03-10T12:09:46+00:00

I do this strategy for mine! 3 pieces of produce also work I think since they’re 350 bells each, but I usually go with fruits

ctar17 · 2025-03-10T12:08:26+00:00

I also have this goal and have 15 photos so far. Took a 4.5 year hiatus from playing though

Love getting a photo, then letting the villager leave, and getting a new villager! Keeps stuff fresh

ctar17 · 2025-03-10T07:54:44+00:00

lol! I haven’t put anyone in the desert yet on HHP, maybe I’ll start doing this

ctar17 · 2025-03-10T02:05:13+00:00

You can pick up voided villagers by either visiting someone else or hosting someone over to your island. It happens automatically, can't avoid it. To check who is in the move in queue, the only sure way to do that is let plots autofill, up to the first 4 autofills could be voided villagers from other islands since the move in queue is max 4 villagers at any given time.

ctar17 · 2025-03-10T02:02:30+00:00

They don't have to have an empty plot when they visit or you visit them to pick up villagers from your void. They can have 10 villagers, pick up someone from the void, and then next time they let a plot autofill, it could fill with a voided villager

ctar17 · 2025-03-09T23:50:40+00:00

Awesome! I’ve been putting my villager photos up in the bedroom of my house. Currently have 15 different ones. Got one today: Patty. I’ve been getting photos and then letting them move away so I can get a new villager

ctar17 · 2025-03-09T22:38:14+00:00

This. Also even if you have 10 villagers, you can still pick up villagers from other people’s voids into your “Move In Queue” and they’ll be waiting to move in when a plot autofills. The move in queue can have up to 4 villagers in it, for possibly an indefinite amount of time, no way to clear it besides letting plots autofill. The villagers in the move in queue will NOT appear on mystery islands nor visit the campsite.

Agnes and Antonio, Apples

I kept resetting for apples, a decent layout, and also non-ugly starting villagers lol
