Is it possible for a reservist to get on a Naval/Marine Corps ROTC Scholarship?

How so? because I was told that one couldnt receive funding from the government twice??
and if one was on scholarship would they still be deployable?
I believe you would just have to give up one form of Government assistance and switch to the other, as long as you qualify. Talk to the ROTC reps and the Finance people at your school.
As for possibly being deployed, I would have to say yes. You are at the needs of the Corps and if they need you, they can tap you and send you. Your unit might try to keep you out of it, but they might not get the option.

What twice are you talking about? You don't get scholarship money for just being in the Reserve.
