What we do.

Army ROTC is an elective curriculum that you take in addition to your required college classes. It prepares you with 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, and provide other monetary benefits. The best part of the ROTC program is that it allows you to have a normal college student experience like everyone else on campus, but when you graduate, you will be a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army.

We develop students, both prior and non-prior service, into leaders who are ready and able to face the challenges of tomorrow.
