NROTC SCHOLARSHIP SYNOPSIS
Captain Noppenberger, the NROTC Scholarship Program Manager for Washington, Northern Idaho, and Montana, will be hosting an NROTC Processing Day at the United States Marine Corps Recruiting Station Seattle Headquarters Sep 5 and Sep 26, 2020.

On the processing day, applicants will conduct the Physical Fitness Test (PFT), Application Photograph, and Officer Interviews.  Prior to arriving, applicants must complete the online portion of the application through NETFOCUS.

In order to take the PFT, applicants are REQUIRED to have a signed Physician Testing Approval Form from their doctor (page 27 of the "Marine Corps NROTC Forms" document linked below) unless they are currently in the Delayed Entry Program. If the applicant is under the age of 18, he or she is also REQUIRED to have a Parental Physical Testing Approval Form (page 29 of the "Marine Corps NROTC Forms" document linked below) unless already in the Delayed Entry Program.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE WILL STUDENTS BE AUTHORIZED TO TAKE THE PFT WITHOUT THESE DOCUMENTS

Applicants are not alone in deciphering this process or completing their application.

Below are the Marines stationed throughout the state who can answer any questions you have regarding the application process.  It is highly recommended that interested applicants contact the Marine in their area, go to a recruiting office, and fill out the paperwork there.  By doing this, the Marine can answer any questions on the spot, and help you collect any documents you need for your application.  You can also contact Captain Noppenberger via email or the numbers in his signature block below.
