Unlike traditional college programs, Army ROTC gives you a wide range of experiences while you work toward a degree. You’ll combine classroom time with hands-on experience, learning skills that are sure to give you an edge over your peers when it comes time to look for a job. Whether you’re planning a career in the Army or the corporate world, Army ROTC is a smart elective course to take. Your studies will include Leadership Development, Military Skills, Decision Making, Problem Solving, and Adventure Training. First and foremost, an Army officer is a leader. The officer plans the work of the organization, assigns tasks to others and sees that the work is accomplished to the highest standard. Officers lead by example. Officers daily make decisions that involve millions of dollars of resources. Their judgment and skill can mean the difference between life and death for the soldiers they command. Army ROTC scholarships pay tuition and required fees, and can be worth as much as $70,000 or more. They are awarded on merit — like academic achievements, extracurricular activities, and personal interviews. Scholarship winners receive a stipend ($250 freshman, $300 sophomore, $350 junior, $400 senior) for each academic month, plus an allowance for books and other educational items. If you are a non-scholarship student, you can still receive the stipend as a contracted cadet during your last two years. Army ROTC course requirements count as elective credits in 128 semester hours required for graduation. Contact us: Central State University (ROTC Host School) Carl E.
