how so?? i’m an incoming freshman 😁😁

Tony Schwartz goodluck [future] FISH. may as well start pushing now.

Tandi Ford Awesome! I’m currently 16 years old and I constantly dream about going there. Mostly inspired by my dad, one of the biggest Aggie fans ever, following me now 😊 Good luck, work hard and you’ll get it!

Make grades!

I'm certainly going to try. My oldest brother finished 8th in his class and my two other older siblings are doing just as well so, I have a reputation to uphold.

oof

Just got accepted into A&M and will be in the Aggie band! Class of 2023

Braydin Sims To be in the Corps one just needs to be a student at Texas A&M, either full time or thru BlinnTeam. To remain in the Corps you need to maintain at least a 2.5 GPA. To get thru fish year I’d say just make good friends with your buddies and embrace the suck together. Understand it’s your position to learn how to follow so one day you may lead, and at the end of the day all the Corps is is just a big mental game.

AJ Schechter thanks so much!

you are only required to wear your uniform to class, the MSC/Rudder, Trigon (for obvious reasons), Duncan and Sbisa, and formations. There are a few other times you have to wear your uniform, but these are the most common times. For living off-campus, you can, but it is highly discouraged. The reason being is that a lot of your experience with the Corps comes from your time in the dorms.

Benneen Your Corps obligations are pretty much just in the morning & evening, and you always have to wear your uniform to class. Otherwise you are your own person.

Matt Brown yes but home football games are huge time commitments

AJ Schechter Do you think I should join? I will be 25 when I transfer.

Matt Brown you totally could. There’s an outfit called V-1 that has cadets mainly comprised of married / older individuals, and they live off campus

Interesting. Well I like to hear that. I was thinking of joining (If I get accepted to A&M) because I read it would help pay for school with the numerous scholarships available.

@@ajtheeagle is there an outfit for cadets who are prior enlisted? Currently in my third year of the Air Force and thinking about doing the SOAR program to come back in as an officer

Hey there! Uniforms are loaned. There is a uniform fee every semester or year, but I can’t recall how much. A few hundred dollars I believe. Boots are usually purchased but can be rented. If you need to rent there then are almost always options available at the Corps Center!

@@ajtheeagle Thank you for your prompt reply. I noticed that the Aggie audience stand while watching the football games. Isn't it hard on the senior cadets who have to stand throughout the game with their boots and swollen feet and calves? Are they allowed to sit at all??

@@pilmolee9773 Haha, yes, it’s exhausting. All students stand the entire game with the exception of halftime, commercial breaks and other game stoppages.

J yup

SPLATS cadets can choose to commission in any branch. I was in AFROTC before I opted out and continued with the general leadership development program.

@TheEvilResidue is the band only for cadets?

they wear the uniform to every class

Thanks a lot for the answer.

When did you Graduate ?

I would say the men are mostly conservative. I would say maybe half of the women as well, but the general minority-grouped population is liberal. There's honestly a mix and there's no reason to turn down any Texas school because of any political affiliation. Especially if going into any ROTC scholarships, most of them are just focused on education, working out, and just having fun. You'll find political-talking people that you'll associate with!

Aolin Yang Awesome! Glad you’re a part of the fam. Stay moti ;)

Who is your favorite junior and why is it Mr. Steele lol

Jason Blaschke Who said he was my favorite

AJ Schechter I was asking Yang lol. But who was your fav from class of 20?

Definitely Mr. Steele. Super cool, cares about the fish, funny.

mohamed BENAINI I graduated. Everybody studies at A&M! All affiliations- ROTC, greek life, intramurals, etc. are all extracurricular activities.

peadey mclovin Yeah lots of cadets have jobs both on and off campus. I recommend trying to find a job on campus, however. You shouldn’t have much trouble.

Albert Milo There are different styles of polishing boots- I wanted mine to have the darker toe box look, so I did dozens of layers of brown polish until they were nicely dark & shiny.

Also is it true that the Texas Fightin Aggies Band is the largest military marching band in the world?

Fish is a freshman in the corps. The aaaa thing is a tradition. And yes

Isaac .Ybarra He did certainly put out!

oh shit its the ol lady

Hows tinder

Michael Powers yes

Yes. The only exception is during finals.

@Kish shiv funny you should say that as A&M has one of the best ROTC programs in the nation, and a history to back it up. Every source I've looked at had A&M in the top 5, and were ranked only behind a few other SMCs (Citadel, VMI, and maybe Norwich). Not to mention, t.u doesn't offer my engineering major, Multidisciplinary Engineering Technology - Mechatronics, of which A&M just got accredited for (WHOOP!). Side Note: Before you say anything about how I couldn't even get into t.u., I am an Out-of-Stater and didn't even apply to t.u.

Xavier Richardson I was in AFROTC with SQ-11, then opted out of ROTC after 2 years and became D&C (drill & ceremony) only.

Aggies Rule that’s awesome, I wish I was determined from the start. Sadly I’m having to work super hard to meet the test requirements for the percentage I’m in my class. Good luck to you

Devin Schroeder Or just me :)

What's it to you snake, you writing a book or something?

ronaldinhoisfat 😘

Mya HeartU No, there is a branch of A&M in Qatar as well

AJ Schechter Ok thank you

@@ajtheeagle even in kingsville , galveston, san antonio ,texarkana , too

You're giving them too much credit

IRON MAN I graduated with a B.S. in Biomedical Science

Christopher Hood In the video you can see I organized my room before leaving, and it was to the passing standard for a senior :)

Common Machiavelli I was a member of Corps Staff my junior & senior year, which is when this was filmed. Freshman & sophomore year I was in Squadron-11!

AJ Schechter who all makes up the Corps staff

Jalen Miller Corps Staff is comprised of Juniors & Seniors who are interviewed and selected for their respective position.

yeah , unbelievable quality for a beginner , very intresting too, i wonder why his channel is not very popular,, the bottleflip inthis video was kinda crazy😂

Do the ROTC scholarship

@@hephaestus511 I'm a fat ass though lol

@@JW-mr5mh Drop weight then, thats what I did to enlist. Sure as hell beats $56k

It means when a academy officer or instructor does cruel or unusual punishments to cadets.

Or any authority of anyone. Like your mom or dad hazing by punishing you unusually or cruel punishments. Not just instructors and officers. It can be cops, parents or teachers

It’s just kind of authority harassment

Class of '69. You only get that great number once a century. LOL!

Skye Callen lmao thanks for sharing

@@ajtheeagle you're welcome
