ROTC for Veterans

Veterans may apply their military experience as credit towards the ROTC Basic Course. If credit is granted, a veteran may skip the freshman and sophomore years of the program, enroll directly in the Advanced Course during their junior year of college, and begin receiving the allowance. Veterans may be eligible to compete for ROTC scholarships and, if eligible, may also receive any VA benefits to which they would normally be entitled. In addition, veterans who return to active duty as officers may count their prior active duty enlisted time towards longevity pay and retirement.
