conscription

Read a random definition: congé d'accorder

A quick definition of conscription:

Conscription: Conscription is when the government makes people join the military. This means that people who may not want to join the military have to go. It's like being picked for a team, but you don't get to choose if you want to play or not.

A more thorough explanation:

Conscription is the compulsory enlistment of people into military service. This means that people are required to join the military, even if they do not want to.

For example, during times of war, governments may use conscription to increase the number of soldiers in their military. This was the case during World War I and World War II, when many countries required young men to join the military.

Conscription can also be called the military draft. It is different from volunteering to join the military, which is a choice that people make on their own.

I am not an expert but I would imagine with your stats a lot of schools will think you have options so I would recommend writing about why that location is a top choice for you not just the school being a top choice. Try to show/convince them you will attend.
