How to Join the ROTC

Freshmen in College

All you have to do is sign up for MSCI INTRO TO LEADERSHIP I (Fall Semester) or MSCI INTRO TO LEADERSHIP II (Spring Semester).  Additionally you will sign up for the MSCI LEADERSHIP SEMINAR (lab).  If you enroll in these classes and you decided you like ROTC, you may be eligible to compete for a 2- or 3-year scholarship.

Sophomore in College

If you have six semesters left in college, you would sign up for MSCI LEADERSHIP ASSESSMENT I (Fall semester) or MSCI LEADERSHIP ASSESSMENT II (Spring Semester). Additionally you will sign up for the MSCI LEADERSHIP SEMINAR (lab).  If you only have 4 or 5 semesters, we would need to send you to a 4-week summer training camp that "counts" as ROTC credit. After this, you would return to campus and enroll as a junior in ROTC and complete the remaining 4 semesters of ROTC. During this course, you will also compete for a 2-year scholarship. These camp spots are incredibly competitive and those chosen will be exceeding program expectations and identified as a leader within the ROTC.

Green to Gold

There are many opportunities for enlisted Army Soldiers to participate in the Green to Gold program. This programs allows current Soldiers to leave their units, return to college, and enroll in ROTC to become an officer. You can learn more about the process at the Army ROTC .
