How To Know If The NROTC Programs Are Right For You?

The Naval Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (NROTC) is a program designed by the Department of the Navy. The core philosophy of the program is to have trained and educated naval officers who are ready to serve at a moments notice sitting in reserve. In exchange for anywhere from four to eight years of active service, the Navy will pay for the tuition to an approved civilian college or university. The student who joins an NROTC program can major in any field at the college that provides a bachelors degree. There are some required classes that must be taken to fulfill the requirements of the program, but they are standard classes (except for Naval Sciences). The student will not only be attending academic learning classes, but will also be training to join the Navy. This means there will be training and drills during the week. On average, there is roughly fifteen hours of Naval training per week. This time will increase as the student progresses through the program. Once the program is completed, the student will graduate and join the United States Navy as a commissioned Ensign. They will have to serve for eight years afterwards. At least four of those years will have to be active duty. In addition to a scholarship, commissioned rank in the Navy, and extensive training, the NROTC program also allows for a monthly cash allowance that is paid to students who are participating and succeeding the programs. It is necessary to maintain a 2.75 grade point average to keep all of these benefits and remain in the program. During summer months, the training of the students (also called midshipmen now) continues. In their freshman year they are taken on a naval cruise. This allows the students to experience life on a real Navy vessel and get real world experience. In the next few years, they repeatedly return to naval bases to take more advanced classes and gain more experience. For those who are just starting college and looking to enlist in the Navy or Marines and begin with a commissioned rank from the start, the NROTC program is an excellent way to begin.
