ROTC scholarships and programs are offered by the Army, Air
Force, Navy and
Marine Corps. ROTC scholarships can be as much as a full-ride
scholarship, paying 100% of college tuition, housing, and miscellaneous
expenses. As an ROTC cadet, when you graduate college you will
earn the rank as Second Lieutenant and will be ready to start your
military career.
ROTC scholarships are awarded to high school students based on merit. The
primary student qualifications considered for awarding scholarships include:
High school academic achievement
Standardized test scores (ACT® or SAT®)
Extracurricular activities

Participate in ROTC summer programs.
