Question Any advice please?

Hi all,



I am currently in my gap year, and am hoping to apply to an University air squadron (UAS) when I start university in October. Prior to my gap year I was award an RAF sixth form scholarship (leading to university sponsorship) in the general duties branch (pilot).
However, I was not ready to go to university and was certainly not mature enough/prepared to commit myself to the RAF for the required length of service. So, I took a gap year. In my time off/working I still have the same fierce desire to fly, if not more so, and now feel ready to commit to the RAF.
As I have said, I am hoping to join the UAS, as a pilot, and my question is whether I will be treated as a normal applicant, or whether I will be turned away because I rejected the scholarship? Also, will my apptitude test scores still count?

Any advice would be gratefully received,
