ROTC offers a program that leads to a commission as an officer in the Army or the Air Force. It is an elective and can be taken by those who desire it just like any other course. For additional information, call Army ROTC at (202) 276-5142 or Air Force (including Space Force) ROTC at (202) 806-6788. Students interested in the Navy ROTC can participate at partner schools.
Dedication, Drive, and Discipline
It takes a unique individual to succeed in ROTC. The goal of these programs is to help students become officers and leaders in the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Space Force and U.S. Army, so you will need to meet — and maintain — program standards.
Classes and Leadership Training
ROTC provides you with the tools to become an Air Force or Army Officer without interfering with your other classes.
ROTC also provides discipline and money for tuition while enhancing your college experience.

Start by taking an Army ROTC basic elective course.
If you have at least two or more years remaining toward your undergraduate degree but not enough time to complete the Basic Course, you can enter the Army ROTC Advanced Course by completing the Leader's Training Course held at Fort Knox, Kentucky, during the summer.
