There are four routes to becoming an officer in the US Army: # Direct commission after graduation from the Military Academy, West Point, NY # The Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) program at many universities and colleges. ROTC is the career path used by military colleges like The Citadel and Virginia Military Institute. (VMI and The Citadel both say the same thing: cadets are required to participate in ROTC training, but unless they are awarded ROTC scholarships are not required to accept military commissions. They further say that about half of their graduates ultimately enter the military. I must know: what's the point of going there if you don't want to be in the Army?) # Completion of Officer's Candidate School (OCS) - enlistment and college credit requirements. # Battlefield commission - this is generally not a permanent situation, and is likely rare in the structure of the Army today.
