We offer scholarships to help you complete the bachelor’s degree, leadership training to prepare you to meet the challenges of your future, and the pride and prestige of being an officer in the U.S. Air Force, Marine Corps and Navy. Upon completion of the ROTC program and graduation, you will be commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant or Ensign and serve at least four years on active duty.
