Nrotc Officer Marine Corps Comissioning Program?


im currently a freshman at pitt state college. im looking to transfer to a university next year that has the NROTC and apply for scholarship. ive talked to a non affiliated-nrotc officer who is an OSO. he asked me a ton of questions. through all these questions i ended up qualifying, except for 1 problem: my backround record. i disclosed to him that 4-5 months ago (when i was a juvenile-17) i was charged with domestic battery. my mother and i had ended up getting into a small fight. he said that i would have qualified but since the battery was involved with a WOMAN, that it was a whole different story and that i had become disqualified.
my question is, is this a true proper disqualification? and if it is, would the nrotc recruiter disqualify me as well?

Job Offer Rescinded?!?


I recently interviewed twice with a company that was supposed to be a temp for hire position.
They immediately notified my recruiter that they were interested in me and wanted to extend an offer, but nothing official because they were waiting for the government to approve the funding for the positions.
We went through the motions of doing the background check and everything, the company then decided they wanted to hire me directly (not temp period) so I had to fill out an official job application and all that, which was sent through my recruiter.
No word for a week or so. My recruiter (NOT affiliated with the company) said everything was fine and they were just waiting for the background check and salary approval and all that, I guess. But to not worry.
Today I get a phone call from her saying the company had let her know that they have two employees who are currently not on projects, and they’re trying to see if they can fill the position with one of them.
wtf??? why go through all the motions and making me fill out all these paperwork, call my references, conduct a background check, promise me the job, only to fill it internally?
Needless to say, I’m pissed. I spent a month not looking for another job (currently laid off) because this company had promised me a job, and it was looking hopeful from all the things they were saying and having me fill out.
They said they would let my recruiter know on Monday what they decide, but I’m obviously not hopeful. It’s easier for them to just fill the position with a current employee than a new one, but I wish they had been upfront about this from the beginning.

Engineering Opportunities?


I do not know enough information nor would I trust a recruiter to give me a good picture of what I may face to draw a good conclusion about what opportunities I could be presented… I have a passion for physics, blowing things up, guns, programming and engineering. I have absolutely no desire to be the man behind the iron sights pulling a trigger, but if there is some way to get involved in some R&D with the military and I was given some realistic information, I would have a much firmer basis for what path I wish to follow, being non-military affiliated or performing some kind of engineering under subjects I am greatly passionate about.
I simply wish I had a source of honest information lacking the patriotic propoganda that the advertisements for the army and the recruiters could try to press into my mind.
