How Can I Earn a Commission as an Army Officer=Leader?
Army ROTC is an elective curriculum 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 Army ROTC is an elective,
you can participate 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 be commissioned as
an Officer in the Army. At that point, you will have a wide range of interest
areas you can specialize in called branches.
