What is Army ROTC? It's an elective you take along with your required college classes. It gives you the tools, training and experiences that will help you succeed in any competitive environment. Along with great leadership training, Army ROTC can pay for your college tuition. Because it's an elective, you can participate in the ROTC program your freshman and sophomore years without any obligation to join the Army. You will have a normal college student experience like everyone else on campus, but when you graduate, you will have earned a commission as an officer in the United States Army.
Those who succeed in the Army ROTC program are students who excel and want something more out of the college experience. Generally, these students are scholars who keep their grades up, athletes who are physically strong and leaders who have a great desire to learn.
Nurse Program
If you're considering an undergraduate Nursing degree, enrolling in Army ROTC can enhance your leadership skills and critical thinking abilities while providing financial support to help make your professional goals a reality.
Being a Nurse in the Army provides you with benefits not found in the civilian world. As an Army Nurse and officer, you will have the respect of your peers and coworkers, as well as opportunities to train and serve in a variety of specialties.
Your Commitment
Army ROTC students who receive an Army ROTC scholarship or enter the Army ROTC Advanced Course must agree to complete a period of service with the Army. You can serve full time in the Army for three years (four year for scholarship winners) or you may be selected to serve part time in the U.S. Army Reserve or Army National Guard while pursing a civilian career. Scholarship options for both full and part-time service are available!
