  • Joining the ROTC during college can be a very valuable experience for motivated students. The payoff is getting a scholarship which could cover most of your tuition and a portion of your other college expenses. The price is spending about 4 years as a military officer after college. Many would view this as a guaranteed post college job. It's a big commitment, but the idea of leaving college with little or no student loan debt is certainly an attractive option. Here are some resources:

    Most ROTC scholarships are 3 yr now. Some 4 yr are available. Make sure you are a STEM major , and leadership positions are huge towards the scholarships. Its a great deal. Our daughter will be attending a Big 10 conference school this Sept.

    Marine corps is part of the navy, what's with the lack of representation of the US Navy additionally while the US Coast Guard doesn't have an ROTC program per say they have someone very similar available at university's such as Norwich

      Hi, I think it would be helpful for you to actually call or visit a recruiting office of one or more of the armed services. These offices are located in most cities and towns in the U.S. The recruiting officers there can answer your ROTC questions, particularly the citizenship issue.

      For the USAF, its an 8-year service commitment consisting of 4 active-duty years (full-time), and 4 years in the reserve or air-guard (part-time). If you're a pilot, or air-battle manager its a 10-year comittment.

      You get full officer's pay for as long as you are in the army. You get paid straight out of college so the 8 years is paid and manditory.

      I don't think so, but it would be best to check with the ROTC programs for each service. I have listed links to each of these in the info section underneath this video. I always advocate finding a good phone number to call by searching each website. Then get a real human on the phone and ask them all your questions. The human you talk with will be happy to help you, I truly believe that! :-)

      Jorge Partida you dont go to basic, you go to Officer Training School/Officer Candidate School, which I believe is after your junior year of ROTC. Then when you graduate, you get commissioned. Something like that.

    What chance does a high-school drop out in their early 20's, working on getting (by that I mean, studying/taking practice tests) his or her GED/HSED stand in receiving any kind of ROTC scholarship? Is there any hope for such an individual?
    Is being rejected more because they don't want you, or because there are more suitable, deserving candidates waiting for their turn? In what ways can one make his or herself more competitive and attractive for enrollment?

      Many people have turned it around, keep looking for the path that gets you there.
